I have already discussed the PhD introduction and literature review in detail. In this paper, I discuss the PhD methodology, results and how to write a stunning conclusion for your thesis. The main objective of this paper is to help PhD candidates to understand what is a PhD methodology and guide them in writing a systematic and meaningful PhD methodology, results and conclusion. The methodology used in this research is a descriptive method as it deliberates and defines the various parts of PhD methodology, results and conclusion writing process and elucidates the "how to do" in a very unpretentious and understanding manner. As thus, this paper summarises the various steps of thesis methodology, results and conclusion writing to pilot the PhD students. This road map is a useful guidance especially for students of social science studies. Additionally, in this paper, methodology writing techniques , procedures and important strategies are enlightened in a simple manner. This paper adopts a "how-to approach" when discussing a variety of relevant topics such as introduction, formulation of the methodology, variables , research design process, types of sampling, data collection process, interviews, questionnaires, data analysis techniques and so on. Results and conclusions are also discussed in detail, so that PhD candidates can follow the guide clearly. This paper has 5 parts such as Introduction, Literature reviews, Methodology, Results and Conclusion. As such, I discuss Methodology, Results and Conclusion as the final assessment of the PhD thesis writing process.

This book aims to guide researchers, academicians and PhD candidates especially Social Science Researchers on how todo research systematically. Research is a premeditated investigation using scientific methodology (quantitative, qualitative,) to solve a serious problem (not ordinary problem), thus creating additional (new) knowledge. Research is also regarded as an inquiry of reality about something by testing a hypothesis, answering questions, generating new queries, finding solutions, and creating new knowledge. This book guides you how to effectively structure your research from the proposal till VIVA presentation. Although research designs may differ from one discipline to another, a general road map should include the following: Ø Topic of research Ø Research problem, questions and hypotheses Ø Review of current literature Ø Theoretical framework or methodology experimental, observation and so Ø Data collection and testing if any Ø Data analysis Ø Results Ø Discussions and Applications Ø Conclusion Ø References

A Quick Guide to Dissertation Writing

The final year of graduate school is an exciting time. At least for some. For others, dissertation panic begins to set in. After all, penning a 100+ page manuscript, defining your further academic career and integrity is a pretty big deal. It’s alright to worry that you are making not enough progress on your Ph.D. dissertation. However, you should not let that fear cripple your ability to actually get down to writing.

Granted, there’s a remedy. In this guide to writing a doctoral dissertation, we’ll break down this important body of work and provide you with some helpful instructions on how to organize your work best. But first, let’s get the basics out of the way.

What is a Dissertation?

Thesis vs dissertation: similar documents with important distinctions.

Introduction

Literature review, methodology, research findings, conclusion, discussion, and future consideration, how long is a dissertation, who is the target audience of a dissertation, how long does it take to write a dissertation, how to choose a good dissertation topic, what is the hardest part of a dissertation, what are some common dissertation defense questions.

To Conclude

The Wharton School of Business offers the next succinct dissertation definition:

A dissertation is a book-sized manuscript describing the original research performed to earn the Ph.D.

Your dissertation is a direct demonstration of your academic excellence and serves as an illustration of your field expertise. Conversely, this document demonstrates that you’ve “earned your stripes” and can transition from being a student to becoming a scholar.

The two main descriptors of a dissertation are:

• Originality your dissertation should provide some novel, unique hypnosis or evidence to it.
• Substantial while you certainly cannot capture all the research, theories, and experimentation that you undertook during your Ph.D., your dissertation should fully cover the key findings you’ve made during your work.

In short, every dissertation should make an original doctoral thesis statement (some hypothesis or conjecture) and then provide substantial evidence that backs it up.

Note : Thesis writing for dissertation is different from master thesis writing. More on this in the next section!

What is a thesis? Is there such a thing as a doctoral thesis?

If you live in the UK or Europe, there are a few differences between a thesis or a dissertation. In Europe, a dissertation is a final project to complete a master’s or undergraduate degree, and a thesis is completed at the end of a Ph.D. In America, these terms are reversed.

Different colleges and universities may also require different types of final projects for various degrees. One example is the University College London , where a thesis paper is mandated for research degrees including EngD, MPhil, MD(Res), or Ph.D.

In this document, we’re going to stick with the Americanized definition. When we say a dissertation, we mean the final research to earn a Ph.D. degree. However, many of the tips provided will apply to master thesis writing, too!

If you want to understand the structure and best practices of a  thesis presentation , check our blog post How To Do a Proper Thesis Defense.

Structural Differences Between a Master’s Thesis and Doctoral Dissertation

For most students, the key difference is that the dissertation is completed by a Ph.D. candidate. Further, each document highlights a very different level of expertise in a particular academic discipline:

• In a master’s thesis, you need to show that you can add to or expand on existing research.
• In your dissertation, you are expected to prove that you can raise your research questions, then answer those with substantial evidence.

The Standard Dissertation Structure Explained

The goal of a dissertation is to provide formal arguments that back up your thesis. To keep the narrative coherent and well-organized, you are expected to organize all your scientific knowledge into specific categories dissertation chapters.

One of the most commonly used structures for the dissertation is as follows :

• Literature review
• In the form of validation of model/proof of theorems, main research results, focus group findings, etc.
• Secondary confirmation studies in case you performed these.
• Conclusions, discussions, and future work.
• Dissertation acknowledgments (optional)

Note: It’s always best to ask your advisor about the preferred dissertation format since some universities may have different requirements.

Now, let’s zoom in on each one of them!

An abstract is a summary of your dissertation that appears at the beginning of the document. It provides readers with a concise explanation of your research question, objectives, methods, and your most meaningful outcomes. However, this isn’t always a mandatory inclusion. You should double-check the normal practices within your expected industry.

A dissertation introduction is somewhat of a technical part that states the nature of the problem you plan to explore (your thesis) and lists the research questions. It also defines the significance of the research, communicates the key terminology, and briefly discusses prior/related work in the field.

As you work through your dissertation, you’ll find yourself revisiting this chapter repeatedly. This will continue as you flesh out your ideas. At the same time, once you’ve identified the path your dissertation will take, your intro can serve as a touchstone. Refer to your introduction to ensure that your research doesn’t go out of scope!

The literature review section showcases that you already did background research on the matter and understand what other experts in your domain think on the same subject.

Typically, this section should explain the conceptual or theoretical framework that you are using and then provide a brief review of all the sources you have read in your research, organized by a certain theme.

Lastly, you should address the gap in existing research that you plan to address in your dissertation (to prove the novelty of your knowledge).

Methodology stands for a detailed description of your research methods. This includes an overview of your research participants, setting, data collection methods, instruments, and data analysis. Here are some key points that you must mention:

• Whether you will use quantitative methods, qualitative methods, or both.
• Why you’ve chosen these methods.
• How you collected data.
• How you analyzed the data.
• Tools you used while conducting research.

Research findings will constitute the bulk of your dissertation. They can take up to 2-3 separate chapters (some dissertation topics demand that level of depth).

All of your findings should be logically organized, either by research questions or hypotheses, and reinforce the initial thesis statement that you’ve made. The findings section is usually the most challenging to write and organize, so don’t push yourself to write it well for the first time. Instead, plan more time for it during the dissertation editing stage.

In this final section, you will put a summary of your findings, conclusions, and suggestions for future research. This will repeat some information in the findings chapter. The key difference is that this is the part of the dissertation that includes your interpretations.

How to Write a Dissertation: Common FAQs Addressed

A dissertation should be as long as it needs to be to adequately cover the topic, and reflect the required level of research . To put that into more concrete terms, most dissertations are several hundreds of pages long.

Folks from Flowing Data attempted to give a better estimate by analyzing average dissertation lengths across 50 majors and ended up with the following figures:

• History and Anthropology average dissertation length 300+ pages.
• Social work average dissertation length 150+ pages.
• Maths, economics, statistics average dissertation length 100 pages.

The target audience of your dissertation is peer scholars and the dissertation committee of course, who’ll evaluate your work during the dissertation defense.

The exact makeup of the committee can vary, but in most case expect to see the following people in it:

• Senior faculty members from your department
• Your dissertation advisor
• One or more junior faculty members or TAs
• A staff member from another department, especially for multidisciplinary degrees.

Your dissertation timeline will depend on the topic you’ve chosen and the amount of time you’ll need to complete your research. In most cases, plan to spend up to 18 months on doing the prep work for your dissertation and around 3-5 months on actually writing the manuscript.

Well, that’s a question to you actually since it depends on what academic interests you have. So you’ll really need to think this through on your own or perhaps ask for some dissertation help from your advisor.

If you are struggling to narrow down on the optimal option, go with a research topic where you’ve already developed some expertise, and will hold your interest in the long term.

This is a bit subjective. Some people are okay with the writing process but hate dissertation editing. Another may struggle with the literature review or selecting a dissertation topic. For others, it’s the dissertation introduction. Of course, the dissertation defense presentation is almost universally believed to be difficult, so be sure to prep well for it too!

While the exact question will depend on the body of your research and your academic field, here are are some universally asked questions that you should prepare to answer during your dissertation defense presentation:

• What is the key significance of your research?
• Did you bridge any research gaps with your work?
• What limitations did you encounter during your research? How did you address them?
• Why did you use method x for your research?
• Considering your key findings, what would you recommend next?
• How can your findings be put into practice?
• How would you relate your findings to other research done in the field?

I’m still panicking! Do you have any other dissertation defense tips?

Yes, glad you’ve asked! We’ve written a separate post describing how to prepare for a thesis defense . All of the tips and tricks (and PowerPoint templates!) can be easily adapted to your dissertation defense, should you get asked to deliver a public presentation.

No Ph.D. candidate needs to be told how important a dissertation is. In fact, most could stand to let the pressure off a bit. Your dissertation and the associated research you conduct will reveal your expertise and showcase your commitment to higher education. To keep things on the right track, follow some of the advice we’ve provided in this guide.

1. Professional Dissertation PowerPoint Templates

Every dissertation will be presented and exhibited to a professional jury. The dissertation structure will be the same as your main document, but your presentation needs to be concise. Open your dissertation presentation with a strong Abstract, which will be a summary of all the work done and conclusions. Then follow with the state of the art research and how you elaborated the hypothesis required to make your thesis. Describe your research model and which where the results. Finally conclude with your thesis statement and how your research proofs (or not) its validity.

Presentation Transcript

What to Do Before Writing • Before writing a thesis statement, the writer must be aware of his or her audience and purpose. • You must begin with a topic question. • You must form an opinion and state it clearly. Do not be wishy-washy. • Be sure you have approached your evidence fairly, without bias. • Consider both sides of a controversial issue. • Once you've established the topic question, a clear position, and objectivity, you're ready to write a thesis statement.

What Is a Thesis Statement? • You have heard the term thesis statement hundreds of times but do you really know what it is? A thesis statement: • Presents your opinions or thoughts on a subject or an issue. You cannot write an essay without one. • Must contain a subject + an opinion. • Answers the topic question (the one you created or the one presented to you by the instructor).

Every paper you write should have a main point, a main idea, or central message. The argument(s) you make in your paper should reflect this main idea. The sentence that captures your position on this main idea is what we call a thesis statement.

TIP: A thesis statement should never contain the following: in my opinion, I think, I believe, etc. Tell them that the entire thesis represents what they believe. • However, it may be helpful to begin your thesis statement rough draft with in my opinion, I believe, or I think to make sure they are expressing their thoughts or opinion on a specific subject or issue. When writing the final draft, simply eliminate those phrases.

How long does it need to be? • A thesis statement focuses your ideas into one or two sentences. It should present the topic of your paper and also make a comment about your position in relation to the topic. • Your thesis statement should tell your reader what the paper is about and also help guide your writing and keep your argument focused. (However, it is not an announcement. You never write: This essay is about….)

Writing a Good Thesis Statement • It is important to understand the difference between good and bad thesis statements. • A good thesis statement is short and simple: it should be no longer than one sentence, regardless of essay length. • Good Example: Success is a result of doing the right things consistently. • Bad Example:In a world full of success gurus and books about success, it becomes ever so more important to delineate the one trait that ultimately determines success: doing the right things consistently.

A good thesis statement is limited to one main idea. • Good example: The key to successful dieting is focusing on a specific goal. • Bad example: The key to successful dieting is focusing on a specific goal, which is also the key to successfully running a business and coaching a football team.

A good thesis statement is a declarative sentence with no qualifiers (might, maybe, perhaps, etc.): • Good example: Lebron James' ability to score, pass, and rebound make him the league's most valuable player. • Bad example:Does Lebron James' ability to score, pass, and rebound make him the league's most valuable player? • Bad Example:Lebron James' ability to score, pass, and rebound just might make him the league's most valuable player.

Evaluating the Work • When you have completed your thesis statement is valuable to evaluate your writing. Use the following questions to analyze your thesis statement: • Have you answered the question or merely restated it? The following examples are based on this question: Does Romeo's prior feelings for Rosaline diminish the credibility of his love for Juliet? • Good example: Romeo's prior feelings for Rosaline diminish the credibility of his love for Juliet. • Bad example:This essay examines whether or not Romeo's prior feelings for Rosaline diminishes his love for Juliet.

Have you tried to argue both sides of the case? It is important to acknowledge the other side and address the other position. That does not, however, excuse you from choosing a side. • Good example:Juliet was not the first woman to capture Romeo's fancy; she was, however, the one who affected him the most. • Bad example:Romeo loved Juliet with all his heart, but he loved Rosaline too; It could be argued they were both his favorite.

Have you prejudged the issue by using loaded language? Immature writers manipulate readers through emotionally-charged language. • Bad example:Immature, whiny, male-pig Romeo, a male harlot, ruined precious Juliet whom he loved no more than Rosaline.

Sample Thesis Statements • Not just empty stories for kids, fairy tales shed light on the psychology of young children. • Because our planet's health may depend upon biological diversity, we should save the whales. • If the government takes over industry in Kenya, the industry will become more efficient. • When you read the above statements, is it clear what the essay will show/prove/explain/persuade?

Bad - Good - Great • The North and South fought the Civil War for many reasons, some of which were the same and some different. • While both sides fought the Civil War over the issue of slavery, the North fought for moral reasons while the South fought to preserve its own institutions. • While both Northerners and Southerners believed they fought against tyranny and oppression, Northerners focused on the oppression of slaves while Southerners defended their own right to self-government.

Can you pick out the thesis statements in the following introductory paragraphs? • Hugh MacLennan once wrote that, “Happiness is the word which always comes to my mind when I think of the St. John River. The St. John is intimate and very beautiful.” Although MacLennan wrote this in 1961, the sentiment behind this quote is still very much connected to the St. John River, specifically regarding the happiness it continues to bring to those lucky enough to live by its banks and tourists who are wise enough to explore its beauty. This river is the hub of Fredericton and is why Fredericton is referred to as “Atlantic Canada’s Riverfront Capital”. As such, much of what Fredericton has to offer is connected to this picturesque waterway, and a vacation centered on the river is one the whole family is sure to enjoy.

I am a movie fanatic. When friends want to know what picture won the Oscar in 2000 or who played the Ironman in The Avengers, they ask me. My friends, though, have stopped asking me if I want to go out to the movies. This is because I have decided that the idea of going to the movie theater to see a movie is overrated, so I have quit going. The problems in getting to the theater, the theater itself, and the behavior of some patrons are all reasons why I often wait for a movie to show up on Netflix.

In “A Rose for Emily”, William Faulkner’s use of imagery sets a tone for the general theme of the story, death. A rose to most is seen as an object of beauty, with such a sweet smell. In this story, we see Emily much like the rose, an object of beauty and desire that soon begins to wither and die. Faulkner, through great use of imagery, paints a vivid picture of a dying rose, Miss Emily.

Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft, could spend one million dollars per day, every day, seven days a week and would not run out of money until he was 311 years old! Most would agree that he has reached a point of financial security. In fact, it would be almost impossible to figure out how one could spend one million dollars per day. For most Americans, finding an occupation that is satisfying, earning enough money to live comfortably, and figuring out a realistic blend between work and leisure are three essential factors in beginning one’s career.

Stephen King, creator of such stories as Carrie and Pet Cemetery, stated that the Edgar Allan Poe stories he read as a child gave him the inspiration and instruction he needed to become the writer that he is. Poe, as does Stephen King, fills the reader's imagination with the images that he wishes the reader to see, hear, and feel. His use of vivid, concrete visual imagery to present both static and dynamic settings and to describe people is part of his technique.Poe's short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" is a story about a young man who kills an old man who cares for him, dismembers the corpse, then goes mad when he thinks he hears the old man's heart beating beneath the floor boards under his feet as he sits and discusses the old man's absence with the police. In "The Tell-Tale Heart," a careful reader can observe Poe's skillful manipulation of the senses.

After the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York's World Trade Towers and the Pentagon, the debate surrounding racial profiling in airports intensified. Many people believed that profiling was the best way to identify possible terrorists, but many others worried about violations of civil liberties. While some airports began to target passengers based solely on their Middle Eastern origins, others instituted random searches instead neither of these techniques seems likely to eliminate terrorism. Now many experts in the government and in airport security are recommending the use of a national ID card or Safe Traveler Card. If every US citizen had such a card, airlines could screen for terrorists more effectively than they do now and avoid procedures that single out individuals solely on the basis of race.

When a cell phone goes off in a classroom or at a concert, we are irritated, but at least our lives are not endangered. When we are on the road, however, irresponsible cell phone users are more than irritating: They are putting our lives at risk. Many of us have witnessed drivers so distracted by dialing and chatting that they resemble drunk drivers, weaving between lanes, for example, or nearly running down pedestrians in crosswalks. A number of bills to regulate use of cell phones on the road have been introduced in state legislatures, and the time has come to push for their passage. Regulation is needed because drivers using phones are seriously impaired and because laws on negligent and reckless driving are not sufficient to punish offenders.
