Masters Thesis

Posted on Tuesday, August 4, 2009 in Dissertation

The essential requirement of a Master's thesis is that it literally demonstrate mastery: that you have fully understood the state of the art in your subfield and that you are capable of operating at that level. The hardest part is figuring out how to cut your problem down to a solvable size while keeping it big enough to be interesting. Choosing a topic is a gradual process, not a discrete event, and will continue up to the moment you declare the thesis finished. Actually solving the problem is often easy in comparison to figuring out what exactly it is.

The role of self-examination in this process is critical. Finding a thesis topic within an area of interest is more difficult. A topic is best formulated as a question. But the questions cannot be too broad, for a topic must have focus. Nor can it be too narrow since the goal of a good thesis is to express thoughts of general importance through detailed analysis of a specific case or cases.

Writing a thesis

Posted on Tuesday, August 4, 2009 in Dissertation

Writing a thesis / dissertation takes much time, which is why it is recommended to organize your work straightforward from the very beginning.
