Graduate students conduct research to make an original
contribution to knowledge. The thesis
is a formal document that makes clear:
-
why your research topic was explored,
-
how you conducted your research,
-
and what has been learned from
your research, i.e., your original contribution to knowledge.
Your research is judged by examiners
who must be convinced that your question or problem is original
and your answer or your solution is useful. Have a look at the
kinds
of questions your examiners will have in mind when
they read your thesis.
Test your understanding of the above information
by completing Task 1a.
