The Proposals written must include:

*Research Proposal* – (2-page limit research proposal plus an additional page for references, strictly enforced): Specifically and clearly state the research question to be investigated, including your activities and goals. Also, include how your research aligns with one of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering research themes.

*Bibliography* – (1-page limit): list at least five resources you reviewed regarding the research area.

*Timeline:* Create a reasonable and descriptive timeline that relates to the proposed research activities for the requested period

*Personal Statement* – (1-page limit): write about the relationship between personal goals and the proposed research activity.


Proposal evaluation criteria

The research question or hypothesis to be investigated is well-thought out and described.

There is a clearly defined research plan that describes the tasks that will be conducted in order to answer the research question.

The timetable is descriptive and correlates with the research plan defined in the proposal.

The proposal provides a concise review of the research previously published relevant to the proposed work with appropriate citations.

Start your bid with the last line

The personal statement demonstrates that the professional is motivated and aligns with the proposed research activities.

The resume demonstrates an ability to achieve goals and participation in activities.

The proposal explicitly states how the research aligns with efforts in solar and photovoltaic energy, biotechnology, low- and high-power energy storage, power electronics, electric power system, batteries and hydrogen fuel cells.
