Thesis Paper Writing And Importance Of Topic!

Writing a thesis is not much different than writing other academic papers and much of the advice that appears elsewhere in this site will be relevant to the thesis writer. Still there are some major differences between writing a thesis and writing a course paper.

A thesis paper is a research report. It concerns a problem or series of problems in your area of research and it should explain what was known about it previously, what you did towards solving it, what you think your results mean, and where or how further evolution in the field can be made. Remember that a thesis is not an answer to an assignment question. Cause the reader of an assignment is usually the one who has set it. S/he already knows the answer (or one of the answers), not to mention the background, the literature, the assumptions and theories and the strengths and weaknesses of them. The readers of a thesis do not know what the "answer" is. If the thesis is for a PhD, the university wants that your thesis make an original contribution to human knowledge. Your research must discover something until now unknown.

In the beginning writing a thesis seems a long and complicated task and it is indeed a gruesome task to write a 30000 words original document. Fortunately, it may seem less daunting once you have a couple of chapters done. And it is highly possible that towards the end, you will even find yourself enjoying it---an enjoyment based on satisfaction in the achievement, pleasure in the improvement in your technical writing, and of course the approaching end.

In thesis writing, choosing a topic is often the most difficult part of the writing process. Here are some points to consider when developing a topic for your thesis
• Chose a topic that has interested you throughout your graduate or undergraduate career
• Think about the top three issues you want to study and then turn them into questions
• Review papers you have written for classes, looking for a pattern of interest
• Look at class notes; professors may have pointed out potential research topics or commented on unanswered questions in the field
• Talk with professors or advisors about possible topics
• Replicate somebody else's study
• Conduct research on a broad topic to discover gaps in the literature
• Get feedback on a potential topic from your advisor; your topic may not interest others in the field as much as it interests you
• Also research to discover why your topic for thesis papers has not been studied before
Formatting is an important factor of your thesis writing and it plays a major role in its success. The text of the whole thesis must be clear and is managed. Good grammar and thoughtful writing will make the thesis easier to read. Scientific writing has to be a little formal---more formal than this text. Native English speakers should remember that scientific English is an international language. Slang and informal writing will be harder for a non-native speaker to understand.
