Initial proposals are expected to be drafts - so minimum page requirements are not set for submissions. For more detailed information go to https://www.muw.edu/qep/topic
Are the proposals supposed to be complete?
More detailed proposals may require less adjustment after community and committee feedback, but many parts of the QEP will require adjustment as we move into 2022-2023 and adopt a proposal.
