Writing a Statement of Purpose
Tip Sheet 9
Ask these questions:
What is it?
A Statement of Purpose is a sentence that you write, which states, in some detail, what you want to learn about in your research project.
The statement guides you as you work so that you will read and take notes only on what's needed for your project.

Why do I need to do it?
Writing a statement of purpose will do 4 things to help you:
- You will get more interested in your project.
- It will keep you from getting overwhelmed and panicky at all the information you may find.
- It will help you develop a Thesis Statement, which comes later on in the research process.
- It saves you valuable time and effort.
