<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Structure of the Dissertation:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Your dissertation is likely to have the following format <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 \uf0b7 Content list: A list of chapters\/sections\/subsections with the number of the first page
\nof each. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Abstract: Some supervisors may require you to add an abstract to your dissertation. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Introduction: A brief statement of problems and objectives. What are the purposes
\nand aims of the dissertation? What are the main research questions? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Literature Review: This is an important section, which you should structure in a
\nmeaningful way. Reciting brief synopses of articles in chronological order is not an
\nappropriate way to review the literature. You must draw attention to research
\nthemes in the literature, or analyse papers according to alternative methodologies for
\ncomparison. A good literature review is comprehensive, critical and informative. You
\nshould conclude it by identifying your intended contribution to the current literature. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Development and description of your research framework\/design: This is the
\nresearch methods\/methodology section of the dissertation. Its content will differ
\ndepending on the particular research undertaken. You may use this section, for
\nexample, to explain and develop researchable concepts, formulate models for
\nestimation, or describe hypotheses you intend to investigate by specified techniques
\nor procedures. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Data: sources and methods. You must describe methods of compiling, adjusting, and
\ntransforming data in full detail. For example, you should describe and explain:
\nmethods of interpolation or seasonal adjustment (if applicable); details of
\nquestionnaire design and delivery, if applicable; data problems and data
\ntransformations\/adjustments. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Empirical results: This is intended to be a description of what your data says based on
\nanalysis, and theorize your findings. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Limitations: A discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of your reported research. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Conclusions: Summary of your main findings. Comparison with other published
\nresearch. Implications of your research for future research and\/or any practical
\nimplications for management or government policy <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Reference list\/bibliography: You must enter references in an appropriate format (harvard). You must check to make sure that no references are missing and that you
\ndo not include references that you do not cite in your dissertation. As with
\nspelling\/typing mistakes and poor use of English grammar, incorrect referencing can
\ncause the award of the degree to be deferred. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\uf0b7 Appendices (where necessary): For example, many examiners believe that it is good
\npractice for candidates to provide in an appendix a full listing of all data sources used
\nin a project (if this is appropriate and feasible). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
