A researchproposal, in simplest terms, is a 300-word write-up that provides readers with a quick overview of your proposed essay or report and its organization. It should express your thesis (or central idea) and your key points. In other words, the proposal serves as a “snapshot” of the paper’s focus.
The purpose of writing a paper proposal is to give your professor an opportunity to provide feedback on your topic, argument, and research goals. Perhaps most importantly, a paper proposal requires you to narrow your topic and begin formulating the argument you will make. Paper proposals help students by possibly redirecting you away from a potentially unworkable topic and toward one that is answerable. The point is to avoid the problem of finding out too late that your topic/research question is not going to work
