We welcome projects where Junior Research Fellows conduct research with the aim of publishing their work via research reports, journal articles or extensive blog posts.
Please note that we think the most competitive candidates will craft projects where their main research questions are clear and specific. To have a high chance of success, candidates applying to work on such projects should also demonstrate some unique contribution that they expect their research output to carry relative to the existing body of work.

Writing a Compelling Proposal
What exactly should you write in your 2-page proposal?
In general, we recommend that you write your project proposal in 3 parts as follows:
Part 1 should be a section where:
(i) You list your main research question and 2 to 4 underlying research questions (which feed into your main research question) that your project aims to explore.
(ii) You discuss why you concluded that it’s important to study your main research question.
Part 2 should be a section where:
(i) You list the hypothesis of your study (In other words, what you intend to say in response to your main research question).
(ii) You explain how your study will be unique in comparison to other work that exists on the same subject. For example, you could show this by demonstrating that no one has done comprehensive research on your main research question yet; or your methodology is different from those used before; or your hypothesis is original.
Part 3 should be a section where:
You explain – as specifically as possible – the methodology you intend to use to carry out your study. That is, for each underlying research question, which sources of data will you rely on, and how will you analyze them to extract the information that you need? You should explain this in a detailed manner in your own words (we’re not interested in whether or not you’ve used the most recognized scientific term for a method).
Please note that you’re more likely to succeed if your main research question is clear and specific in a way that allows you to answer it satisfactorily within the period of your engagement with us.
