What is academic writing?

An academic paper is a formal printed document in which professionals present their views and research findings on any deliberately chosen topic.

The purpose of a proposal is to ask for funding in order to make research possible. As there is only a limited amount of money in the world for research, you need to make the case for your particular research as effectively as you can.
