Without having
knowledge about the format of a thesis or a dissertation you can
not prepare a good thesis or a dissertation. You must read what
should be the format of a thesis or which chapters or sections
should be there.
It is a very crucial question when someone is preparing a thesis
or a dissertation that what should be the format of a thesis or
a dissertation? But the format of a thesis or dissertation
depends upon the topic chosen and the type of research. Format
of a thesis generally differ from thesis to thesis. It is
difficult to discuss about the fixed format which should be
adopted by each and every scholar, BUT still we can mention that
the following chapters or the sections should be there in a
thesis.
Sections, Parts and Chapters
Each thesis must be divided in the sections or the parts and
chapters inside for the convenience of the readers and to give
it a logical touch and make it impressive. Generally a thesis
must be divided in at least 3 parts. Every section of the part
of the thesis contains several chapters. This part of the thesis
should contain the following chapters in it.
SECTION - 1 (each section contains different chapters)
Chapter 1 - Introduction
Chapter 2 - Objective or Need of the Study
Chapter 3 - Scope and limitations of this study
Chapter 4 - Review of the literature
