Please review the guidelines below that will come
helpful in your writing process of Dissertation Proposal.
First of all, the proposal for a dissertation is to
be coherent and logical. Always keep in mind what you PROPOSING for the
dissertation. Roughly speaking, the proposal should make sense and, of course,
it needs to be strong, it should contain the main concepts of what you want to
say and do in your dissertation.
Standard Dissertation Proposal should
include the following:
1. INTRODUCTION

paper, and offer a clear, unambiguous thesis, - all this assuming
that readers are not familiar with the topic. Introduction should answer the
questions: WHY this research should be done (Purpose of this study, id. what
you intend to explore and what you intend to do with it or at least what can be
done; purpose also highlights the urgency and actuality of the research, id. why
this research is WORTH doing, what can be done with it (e.g. contribution to
literature on topic, enrich field, practical benefits, etc.) and who cares
about this kind of topic.
2. THEORETICAL
FRAMEWORK (id. the seminal work from which the whole research idea derives)
should contain the Literature Overview and clear argumentation of how this
research will fit in with what has already been said and/or done.
3. RESEARCH
QUESTIONS AND HYPOTHESIS (roughly speaking, what you are trying to find
out/prove), should include Methodology Section, unless specified otherwise by
the customer.
4. CONCLUSION.
