Top Ways to Facilitate Your Dissertation Writing Process

Writing a dissertation is a hectic task, and it can be even more so for those who have a lot going on in their lives and are having difficult managing their daily rituals. The dissertation then suffers in terms of both quality and grade, not to mention authenticity and compactness. There are many ways through which you can facilitate your dissertation writing process, without compromising on any of the crucial aspects.

1)      Shortlist the topic, the research question, and the research supervisor.

The first step is of course to shortlist possible topics you can wrap a dissertation around, also adding possible research questions you will base your research on. It is crucial that you pick the most suitable research supervisor for your dissertation. Do not make the mistake of going to an English Literature professor when your dissertation is based on an economic phenomenon.

2)      Put together a proper structure for your dissertation.

Instead of going about your dissertation in a haphazard manner, it is better to list down the chapters your dissertation will contain, including the sub-sections, so you can plan your time allocation accordingly.

3)      Come up with a proper timeline for your research process.

Any good dissertation requires the support of data and literature that has already been published. But students tend to waste time browsing the internet for sources and end up losing track of the time, resulting in less returns from a larger time frame.

4)      Know the type of sources you should be citing in your dissertation.

The internet is the best place to start looking for sources when it comes to writing a dissertation. But there are so many different types of sources that you end up losing your thread and get lost in confusion. Not all the websites and links you click on are reliable or even authentic. Google Scholar is the best place to look for trustworthy sources to use in your dissertation.

5)      Start writing your dissertation.

After the above steps are accomplished, you will be ready to begin writing your dissertation. Be sure to include recurrent meetings with your research supervisor in your plan so that your work gets checked continuously instead of there being a backlog.

The aforementioned steps will take you through the process of writing a dissertation with more ease and less stress. Putting aside a section of the dissertation for daily work will leave time for you to focus on other tasks.
