Propel your work on dissertation with a help of written samples

A dissertation, or a thesis, is a work submitted to get a scientific degree within the chosen field. Usually, it is about getting a Ph.D. degree but could also refer to a master's degree. The work is completed in written form and should present the results of author’s research and discoveries.

The complexity, quality, and topics of dissertation vary by country, university and study programs, as well as the duration of studying and time for completing the research. The difference in the structure is reasoned by the field of study. Thus a dissertation on psychology diverges from the dissertation on physics.

How to write a dissertation

A dissertation structure usually contains a title page, an abstract, a table of contents, a (varying) number of chapters (including introduction, methodology, research results, conclusion) and the bibliography. Preparing of a dissertation is generally similar to working on any other research paper. The only substantial difference is the scope of research and writing.  So the two big stages are the same: (1) conduction of a research and (2) composing of a text. Let’s consider them precisely.

When you get to the dissertation, it means you have already written a research proposal and a rough outline of your work. If not, your algorithm is the following:

1. Define the topic. This is going to be your primary subject of interest for the next 3-4 years so take your time to choose the issue that is a) sharp; b) exciting; c) feasible; d) corresponds to your major. Don’t avoid consulting with your supervising professor. Remember: a good Ph.D. student is an annoying Ph.D. student.
2. Compose a plan, as detailed as you can. You can write a good work by a lousy plan, but you cannot write a good work without any plan at all. The more detailed your plan is - the easier your work will proceed.
3. Schedule your work. Make a rough estimation of how much time you need on each stage of your Ph.D. project preparation.
4. Start a research. Ask your supervisor for a literature advice. While reading the sources, take detailed notes. The best thing you can do is to write short reviews of each work you’ve read. Thus you will get a literature review without extra efforts and stress.
5. Sort your notes according to the plan. Examine the text's consistency and its logic structure. Elaborate it further, filling the meaning gaps and complete the text to a required volume.
6. Reread, revise, rewrite.
