A research statement is a summary of research achievements and a proposal for upcoming research. It often includes both current aims and findings, and future goals. Research statements are usually requested as part of a relevant job application process, and often assist in the identification of appropriate applicants. A typical research statement follows a typical pattern in regard to layout, and often includes features of other research documents including an abstract, research background and goals. Often these reports are tailored towards specific audiences, and may be used to showcase job proficiency or underline particular areas of research within a program. ==Purpose of a Research Statement== The purpose of a research statement is to let the viewers (e.g. an academic student or a research committee) know the essence of the research document, the main points of the research and where the research will lead to later on. The later paragraphs of a statement might highlight the benefits that the research report will provide to its relevant subject field. A research statement if done properly can be successful in answering the questions below: # What is your interest in the research study?〔http://www.vpul.upenn.edu/careerservices/writtenmaterials/researchstatements.php〕 # What were the unsolved questions that compelled a student to undertake the study? # What are the major accomplishments that resulted from the study?〔 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/careerprep/jobsearch/research_statement.html〕 # What methodologies were used in collection and analysis of data for the research project? # What were the factors that limited the scope of the research? # What other challenges were encountered during the research and how were they overcome? # What is the application of your research in society? # What is the importance of the research project within its relevant field? # Does your research pave the way for further studies in the field? Academic researchers stress the point that a research statement cannot simply be answered by saying yes or no〔http://libguides.marquette.edu/content.php?pid=197124&sid=1651941〕 but is supported by valid evidences. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Research statement」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
