My Thesis Abstract

An abstract is essential for helping readers quickly grasp the focus of my thesis. Therefore, I put effort into creating a concise abstract that provides a clear overview of my research. An abstract serves as a summary, covering the main points, methodology, findings, and implications.

However, when writing an abstract for a proposal, I exclude results and conclusions since these still need to be determined at that stage.

To ensure clarity and comprehensiveness, I structure my abstract into five sections: the purpose of the study, critical literature, methodology, results, and implications. This structure addresses vital questions: Why did I undertake this study? What literature supports my research? How did I collect and analyze the data? What were the findings? And what are the practical implications? Organizing it this way, readers can quickly understand the study’s scope and significance.

I aim to keep the abstract between 250 and 300 words, with each section containing three to four sentences. This length ensures the abstract is concise yet informative, fitting neatly onto one A4 page. Additionally, I include relevant keywords that capture my research’s main topics and concepts. These keywords help summarize the content and assist others in quickly finding related studies. Through this structured approach, I aim to create an effective abstract that guides readers and highlights the core elements of my research clearly and efficiently.

I love writing my thesis abstract!
