Transcription de la présentation

  1. Developing Your Research or Sponsored Program Topic

  2. Where should the idea come from? • The researcher!

  3. Developing Your Research Topic • What questions should you answer when approaching the development of a research or sponsored topic?

  4. Developing Your Research Topic • 1) Is there a need to answer your question? Is it your passion to find the answer? • 2) What is its intellectual merit? Does it advance knowledge and understanding within its own field or across fields? • 3) What research already exists in the literature? How does your research differ or how is it innovative?

  5. Developing Your Research Topic • 4) What goals and objectives will you set? • 5) What are the activities or strategies that will help you achieve them? • 6) What are the anticipated outcomes?  • 7) Who will benefit from these outcomes and what will it contribute on a broader scale?

  6. Developing Your Research Topic • 8) Are you qualified to do the work proposed or should you seek collaborators? • 9) Is your topic well conceived and organized? • 10) Do you/the institution have the necessary resources to complete the research? • 11) How will you evaluate or measure the success of your research? • 12) Who will benefit from the outcomes of your research?

  7. The Agenda of Today’s Sponsors • In friendlier economic times, research for the sake of research and the development of knowledge was enough • Today research and sponsored programming needs to do more than grow knowledge as a goal or objective • Systemic, Transformational, Potential for Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer (i.e. Economic Development) are all areas of focus for both the federal and private sponsor.

  8. Developing Your Research Topic • Evaluating Your Idea Exercises: • What, Why, Who, Where? • Themes of your concept-keep marketing in the back of your mind. The truth is you are selling something and someone will decide to buy or not. • Measureable Goals and Objectives are what you are selling along with your ability to get there. Keeping this in the forefront of your mind while developing your agenda is elemental. • Specific Aims are testable hypothesis with long-term goals.

  9. Sponsors Want More Bang for their Buck • What this means is that sponsors are looking for collaborative, multi or inter-disciplinary proposals. • More perspectives and a variety of “eyes” on content, direction and methods. • External Evaluators are critical! They provide an objective, systematic method of evaluating your project, its progress and outcomes. Your OSP has a listing of evaluators for your reference.

  10. Developing Your Research Topic • Next Steps: • Seek advice from peers and mentors • Consider sponsors-current areas funding trends may guide the development of your concept • Reflect on potential collaborators • Work with your Dean and Chair • Come to OSP early and often!!!
