t should include:

• a brief description of the fieldsite and study population, including a statement about why this project meets the requirements for IRB exemption (this will be covered in class).
• a concise and manageable research question
• a description of your methodology
• an explanation of why this project is anthropologically interesting (link to class materials)

Your writing must be concise in order to fit the necessary information onto one page. This is a place to practice writing with brevity and clarity—if you can explain everything completely and clearly in a small amount of space, all the better.

The proposal should be no more than 1 page double-spaced, with 1” margins and standard 12-pt font.

The project proposal is worth 15% of your total grade in this class.
