Abstract
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.
期刊介绍:
The aim of BAMBED is to enhance teacher preparation and student learning in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and related sciences such as Biophysics and Cell Biology, by promoting the world-wide dissemination of educational materials.
