Important factors in the technical proposal process according to engineering faculty

J.L. Renze

Abstract

The article examines current publications in the area of technical proposals and outlines several major claims from the literature. The author examined these claims by using a written questionnaire and personal interviews with engineering faculty at a large research university. The study indicated that although engineering faculty need to write proposals and succeed at receiving grant funds, these faculty learn about the proposal process from each other, not from the abundant texts on proposals.
