How to Write a Thesis ?

ABSTRACT

This is a short guide on how to write a thesis at both the undergraduate and

postgraduate levels. It is aimed at students of engineering and science. A thesis

may be analysed into three S’s: structure, substance and style. Structure confers

logical coherence; substance, significance and depth; and style, elegance and appeal.

State your hypothesis clearly, ensuring that it is both reasonable and testable.

Keep meticulous records and write up rough drafts of your work as you go along.

Begin writing your thesis proper with the experimental chapters. Progress to the

literature review, introduction and conclusions. Write the summary or abstract last,

after writing the conclusions.

Write clearly and directly, with the reader’s expectations always in mind. Lead

the reader from the known to the unknown. Write clearly, precisely and briefly.

Think, plan, write, and revise. Follow layout guidelines and check spelling and

grammar. Re-read, seek criticism, and revise. Submit your best effort as your

completed thesis.
