What is the checklist for writing a thesis?

1. Register for the appropriate course for the thesis or project at the beginning of the month semester or quarter agreeable to you, your Advisor, and your committee. 
2. Work closely with your committee chairman in developing your thesis or project topic.
 
3. Confer with your committee chair and faculty regarding preliminary approval of the thesis or project format prior to the preparation of the final draft.
 
4. Accurately complete the Thesis/ Project Submission Form. The form must be typed and signed. Your name and title of thesis/project on the Thesis/Project Submission Form must match the name and title on the thesis/project.
 
5. All signatures should be in black ink. Secure the signatures of:
           a. your committee on the approval page (original and one copy).
           b. your committee chair on the abstract (original and one copy).
           c. your Graduate Director or Department Chair on the format approval page (original and one copy).
A faculty member from another school (within your college or university) or other appropriate individuals may serve as a third member on thesis committees or a second member on project committees. In order to do so, the Chair will need to approve the individual for your committee.
 
6. Pay the binding fee (college bookbindery or suitable establishment) prior to the deadline for filing theses and projects. The binding receipt form must accompany the Thesis / Project Submission form and your project or thesis.
 
7. Submit your thesis or project to your research committee chair together with the binding receipt form and the completed Thesis/Submission Form.

How to evaluate the project?

Evaluating the Project  The project should be evaluated at two levels. The first of these levels is the text and the logic of the presentation. The second level of evaluation should focus on the student’s mastery of the material. There are certain minimum requirements that the project or thesis must meet before it should be considered for acceptance. These minimal requirements deal with the manner of presentation of the project problem, its parameters, and analysis. To facilitate the examination of a project, I’ve provided a comprehensive checklist and inventory of the minimal requirements. For example: Is the topic area of the study clearly specified early in the text (within the first two pages)?  Is the topic area of the project derived from or cast into its historical perspective?  Are the major independent and dependent variables logically derived and their importance clearly evident?  Is the specific problem that the...

How to write statement of the null hypotheses?

Introduction to the Chapter  The introduction to Chapter 3 should be no more than half a page in length. This section should present the general purpose of the third chapter and describe for the reader the general layout of the sections that follow.  Chapter 3 will present the methods and procedures of the study. For the purpose of the presentation, the chapter has been divided into five sections, namely, description of the null hypotheses, description of the subjects, description of the research instrumentation, description of the procedures, and treatment of the data.  Statement of the Null-Hypotheses  This section of the chapter should contain a list of all of the null-hypotheses, which are to be tested in the study. You should not present an alternative, directional, hypotheses in this section of the chapter since they are incapable of being tested statistically.  A null hypothesis is a statement of this type:  “There will be no sign...

How to write review of the hypothesis?

Review of the Hypothesis  The review of the hypotheses section in chapter five is also an easy task. All that is needed is a restatement of the hypotheses that was presented in chapter three. Simply realist your hypotheses here. Begin with an introductory phrase like this “The null-hypotheses posed for testing in the study are listed below.”  Review of the Methods  The review of the methods section of the fifth chapter should be two to three pages in length. In essence, this two to three-page section is a summary of the methods chapter of the project. You might begin by completing the following sentence: “The subjects used in the study…..”  Make sure that you cover the following points:  How many subjects were used;  How were they divided into groups;  With what and by whom was the subject tested; and  What were the levels of the independent variables? (Stated another way, what did the experimental subjects participate in that t...
