Writing a Watertight Thesis

This book helps to demistify many doctoral concerns and provides a clear framework for developing a sound structure for the thesis, making it watertight, clear and defensible. Now with the added experience of Mark A. Fabrizi, this edition includes updated chapters on preparing a research proposal, the viva process and developing publishable articles out of your thesis, as well as new chapters to demystify common concerns. Throughout, there are examples showcasing central research questions and sub-research questions, descriptions of different ways students have achieved success and exercices to enable students to apply ideas to their own thesis.
