12 TIPS ON HOW TO WRITE A DISSERTATION

A dissertation is not an easy work, if only because it must contain a new idea, a view of those scientific thoughts that have already been voiced in the scientific world. It should not be copied from the Internet, even from several sources, the work should be an independent scientific work, which has scientific novelty and contributes to the field of knowledge, which was researched. It's hard to find new ideas and set new goals for what's already been said before. But, whatever the dissertation is, it is simply necessary for graduate students to write it. If you follow a number of rules and listen to sound advice, your scientific work will not become your nightmare. 

Our once successfully wrote PhD and doctoral dissertations, and now they help in writing various works, so they are happy to share with their colleagues some tips that will facilitate the process of writing a dissertation and provide some dissertation statistics help https://studybay.com/dissertation-statistics-help/

1. CHOOSING A SUPERVISOR

Why is this issue in the first place? Because this decision largely determines how successfully you will be able to cope with the task. Do not choose as your advisor the professor who has a busy schedule and very little free time. They simply will not be able to give you enough attention, and, as a consequence, the thesis will be written much worse than if your supervisor was a less prominent teacher. But, do not forget, the personal relationship between you should be at least neutral, you should feel respect for each other.

2. OBJECT AND SUBJECT OF THE STUDY

After analyzing the specialty, productive consultation with the supervisor, as well as the teachers of your department, the object and subject of research are determined. The object of research is a certain part of the field of science studied by the applicant, in which processes and phenomena are not fully studied. The task of a PhD thesis is to investigate a part of the object, which may be: certain elements of the object, the study of their relationship and influence on each other, and much more. That part of the object, which is investigated, and is called the subject of research.

3. RELEVANCE

After the applicant has chosen the object and subject of the research, the relevance of the issues under study is considered, also the timeliness and necessity of their solution is assessed.

4. DISSERTATION TOPIC

After the relevance of the dissertation research is confirmed, the opportunity is given to determine the topic of the dissertation, because the subject of the research allows you to determine the topic of the scientific work. The title of the topic comes from the wording of the object as well as the subject of the research.

5. HYPOTHESIS

It is necessary to form a working hypothesis, which the applicant should put forward, predict the expected result of the work. These scientific provisions are defended, refuted or confirmed.

6. STATEMENT OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

It is necessary to formulate the goals and objectives of the thesis, which should ultimately lead to the achievement of the predicted result. Usually the goal of the work is consonant with the topic of the thesis research, only it is necessary to add characteristic words at the beginning or end of the phrase: "find...", "develop...", "what ensures effective application...", etc. To define the goals, it is necessary to define the stages of research. Each stage involves solving a specific problem. Also on the basis of the goals the structure of the thesis is formed.

7. ANALYSIS OF LITERARY SOURCES

On a given topic, it is necessary to analyze the scientific works of domestic and foreign authors, which correspond to the topic of your dissertation. The analysis takes place in order to identify those issues that have not yet been researched enough, need further in-depth consideration.

8. CONCEPT OF WORK

The development of the concept consists of the main characteristics. These are relevance (we talked about it earlier), goals and objectives (already set), the object and subject of the research (also no longer new to you), scientific novelty (justification that this issue has not yet been addressed in scientific circles), scientific provisions (they need to be confirmed in the defense), practical significance (the usefulness of the research results for this field of science). It also briefly describes the content of the research chapters. The concept reveals the essence of the investigated problem, the depth and expediency of writing the work.

9. REVIEW OF THE CONCEPT BY THE SCIENTIFIC SUPERVISOR

The applicant presents their vision of research to the scientific supervisor, who should work out recommendations allowing to build the course of the research correctly and exclude deliberately wrong decisions.

10. DISSERTATION WRITING

After all this, it is finally possible to start writing the text of the thesis itself.

11. STRUCTURE

Like all types of scientific papers, the dissertation is written according to standard rules, in principle, not structurally different from each other. But there may be minor differences at each institution, so you should familiarize yourself with these rules.

12. AGENDA

What does this have to do with anything, you may ask? The hours you do your research depend on the quality characteristics. Everyone understands that job seekers are the same people, most of the time they work all day, and in the late evening hours they tend to write something. Yes, don't forget - personal life and meetings with friends will have to be postponed for the duration of the dissertation.
