The University Grants Commission of India and other functionaries of the World has directed the Universities to notify that all thesis shall be submitted in Hard Copy as well as Soft Copy.

Writing Synopsis (Research Proposals)

Synopsis (Research Proposal) Writing is one of the important task that should be done very carefully.

Generally, the synopsis is written by the research scholars / supervisors in very haphazard / careless manner or in hurry. But once the synopsis is approved by the university, it becomes very dangerous if all points written in the  synopsis are not clear to the student / guide.

Classical Format of the Synopsis (Research Proposal)

• Abstract and Keywords
• Introduction
• Literature Review and Existing Paradigm
• Proposed Plan of the Research Work
• Research Methodology
• Hypothesis
• Objectives
• Flowchart of the Proposed Plan
• Conclusion
• Future Work
• References

All of these points are very very important but as far as sensitive nature of the Synopsis is concerned, the OBJECTIVES AND HYPOTHESIS must be written very carefully

The RDC / DRC / Research Committee of the University focus on the Objectives and Hypothesis and approve the Synopsis based on the points given in the Objectives.

Students / Guides should specify the Hypothesis and Objectives with utmost care.

Generally, students / guides give very Hi-Fi Objectives to impress the Research Committee and after approval of the Synopsis, it becomes a big headache because the student must have to finish all the Objectives to finish the Degree

It is also a general practice to include the rich References / Bibliography without knowledge of the citation. It is also very dangerous in case it is pointed out at the time of Viva-Voce. The Research Scholars should specify only those references that have been cited.


It is advised to the Research Scholars to write the Objectives very carefully and confidently that they will be able to implement all of the Objectives mentioned in the Synopsis
