+It is a concise summary of what is intended to be accomplished and gives a short indication of what has appeared in the literature before you start your work.

+Peruse the literature quickly. 
+Highlight the historical progression of the theory and work that has been done, citing the literature as you go.

+Your objectives are the most important part of the proposal. 
+
+Tell the reader what you intend to accomplish; 
+	see if you can state the expected outcomes in a clear fashion so that you know, 
+	and the reader knows, what you are going to have when finished.
+	
+What theory will you work out? 
+Or what measurements will you make? 
+Or what circuit will you build? 
+The clearer you are with this, the higher the chances will be for knowing how to get there.
+Break the Objectives down into pieces on which each of your teammates will focus. 
+Show how the individual objectives create the project’s overall end objective.
+
+Once you know what you will be doing, put the step sinto a Gantt Chart.Look online for a Gantt Chart description if you need to.
