\begin{itemize}
\item 1. Why have you chosen to undertake doctoral research at Falmouth University, and how does its research environment align with your aspirations?
\item 2. What is the central question, problem, or hypothesis driving your research, and how does it connect to Falmouths research strengths?
\item 3. What do you hope to uncover, challenge, or contribute through your research?
\item 4. Which prior work whether theoretical, creative, or methodological do you consider significant in shaping your research area?
\item 5. What key challenges do you anticipate in your research, and how do you plan to address them?
\item 6. What previous work in your chosen or related field are you particularly proud of, and how does it inform your research direction?
\item 7. What research methods do you propose to use (e.g. qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods), and why are they suited to your project?
\item 8. What ethical considerations are relevant to your research, particularly in relation to Falmouths emphasis on creative and critical inquiry?
\item 9. Which disciplinary field(s) does your research engage with, and how will your project contribute to existing knowledge within these areas?
\item 10. What technical skills (e.g. research methods, software, languages) will you need to develop to support your research?
\item 11. If your project is practice-based, how does your creative or professional practice inform and shape your enquiry?

\frametitle{Why I want to study here}
\begin{itemize}
\item I already work here delivering content to the students and feel that the computing departments research goals and my work already align really well.
\item The research area I'm applying to perform research within is the work I am already performing at this institution.
\item It will be a good reason to continue to develop new software keeping up with novel techniques which can also influence my teaching.
