About This Assignment Brief

The research proposal assessment enables students to construct a proposal that may form the basis of their future dissertation. It is, therefore, useful for several reasons, including making important headway on understanding the theory, rationale and significance of their future dissertation study, constructing a precise and feasible research question, and the methodological complexities that may be involved. It also enables students to demonstrate their learning associated with constructing a research question underpinned with theory and clear rationale, as well as their understanding of research design and methodological considerations, and the public health implications and value of their potential findings. As the assessment involves proposing a study, no data collection or ethics approval should be sought during this unit.
