A research proposal is a simply a structured,
formal document that explains:
Structure of Proposal
What you plan
to research
(your research topic) Research Objectives
Research Questions
Why it’s worth
researching Research Hypothesis
(your justification)
How you can do that? The only way to do is read literature. You will
get idea from academic research and you will know better what
topic you want to narrow down and focus. This is our job as a
researcher to read literatures.
When you come back to your proposal you can decide you can
propose a research study that you want to investigate.
RESEARCH AREA
SELECTION
Selecting a good topic
would be considerably
enhanced if a systematic
approach were followed.
The first step is an
identification of the
broad area of study.

Hypotheses are formulated on the core of any of the areas and objectives listed below:
Usually, there are two kinds of hypotheses; basically referring to the way they are stated.
They are the Null and the Alternative. While the former is frequently stated in the
negative form of “No Significant Relationship” or “No Significant Difference” etc., the
latter takes the positive form of statement; such as “There is a Significant Relationship”,
“There is a Significant Difference” etc.

These help him to test and verify his concepts on the basis of which he
