Project Proposal

Your proposal explains the “what,” “why,” “how,” and “when” of the research or creative work you plan in partnership with your faculty mentor—and argues its' importance. You will also explain your “learning goals,” or what you expect to learn—beyond project outcomes.  UROP prioritizes learning objectives over project outcomes, even in Individual Grant proposals, so you should also clearly state what you will learn beyond the results of the project. In addition to the project proposal, you might need to complete additional steps if your project involves any of the following:

• Human Subjects
• Animal Subjects
• Work funded by the NSF and/or NIH
• Domestic and/or International Travel
