WHAT IS THE BOOT CAMP ABOUT?

We offer a package that includes different learning modalities. Throughout the course you will be provided with (1) a set of preparatory material regarding the nuts and bolts of writing a research proposal, (2) an interactive online event to learn and discuss participants’ experiences of putting their research ideas on paper, and (3) a guided exercise about providing a review on a peer’s research proposal to enhance participants’ learning.

Module 1 – Asynchronous – Drafting
The first module is about approaching the writing of your research proposal in the best way. 
After reviewing the material you will be required to write a first draft of your proposal before the second module starts. There is no specific start date, but we recommend you start preparing your proposal as soon as possible!
