Dear all,
I am (as all of you are) told that now research students will have to submit their research proposal. (Dr, PP, this has never happened before). Not that I didn't like it, but it seems lecturers/supervisors now have more load than before - which in a way is also better for two reasons:
a) We will be able to see if comments given by examiners during their presentation were taken into account and appear in the final version of the proposal. This, I see, as an obvious trap for those who did not take notes of the comments given in the presentation. So, now, please start to remember what really happened in the torture chamber.
b) Having the proposal at hand, there will always be something that students and supervisors can fall back to. When I looked back, I sometimes (and this can be many) did not remember the title of the project, let alone the details like the objectives ets - which consequently resulted in "new versions" of advise everytime students come to seek further advise.
Well, I think we should be thankful to that decision.
OK, guys, prepare your proposal - and this should not take too much of your time. You need to keep on reading.
Hamid.

Yes, it does burden us as the student too because of abundance assignments this semester. But I do agree with Dr about the advantages that we have to submit the proposal after presentation. After the presentation and comments from lecturers at that time, I actually became blur with the objectives of my study. After the discussion with Dr the next few days I feel that my writing became more scientific.
