An idea to explore: Cultivating the art of proposal writing among graduate students.

Proposal writing is an essential requirement for making progress in academics. Learning this skill necessitates support from a mentor to cultivate effective habits. It entails effective strategies from graduate students, such as literature reading and using online tools. Additionally, they must develop an understanding of resource accountability, system thinking, and considering deadlines as a driving force. Good practices for effective proposal writing also involve planning to summarize the work done in the field. Moreover, it requires ideal mentor support by providing timely assistance, helping students overcome impostor syndrome, sharing successful proposals, and creating a cooperative environment.
