The process for developing a research proposal in architecture typically includes the following steps:
1. Identification of a research problem: This involves the identification of a gap in knowledge or an issue within the field of architecture that the research proposal aims to address.
2. Literature review: This involves a comprehensive review of existing literature related to the research problem, which includes articles, books, and other sources.
3. Research questions/hypotheses: Based on the research problem and literature review, the researcher formulates specific research questions or hypotheses.
4. Methodology: This section outlines the research design and methods that will be used to answer the research questions or test the hypotheses. It includes information on data collection, data analysis, and potential ethical considerations.
5. Timeline: This section outlines the expected timeframe for completing the research project.
6. Budget: This section outlines the estimated costs associated with the research project, including personnel, equipment, and other resources.
7. Referencing and citation: A list of all the sources utilised in the literature review must be included.
8. Conclusion: A summary of the research proposal, with an emphasis on its significance, contributions, and implications for the field.
9. Ethics approval/licensing and application where necessary.
