# *Project 2026.2.4 👉 Proposal*

- Exclusive invite only, TechLit Empire
- Deadline: Jun 3

## *Narrative for Students*

Universities do more than teach students. Universities are also responsible for academic research. They study the world, make hypothesis, prove (or disprove) things, and share their results. Prestigious universities do a lot of research!

The year is 2026. Just because your school isn't a university doesn't mean they can't do science! Your school has decided to fund and publish original research from students like you.

Create a PDF document proposing a research project of your own. Then, pitch your proposal on video to the school board.

It's important that your proposal includes a falsifiable hypothesis, and explains how you can use the data you collect to reject your hypothesis (or not).

Things you can include in your proposal:
- A falsifiable hypothesis
- Methods for gathering data
- Project timeline
- Project budget
- Organized PDF & video
