What is a dissertation?

Answer

A dissertation is a substantial academic research project undertaken by both undergraduate and postgraduate students. It involves in-depth investigation, analysis, and synthesis of knowledge within a specific field of study.

While the scope and complexity may vary between levels, dissertations at both levels aim to demonstrate the student's ability to conduct independent research, apply critical thinking skills, and present their findings in a coherent and scholarly manner.
