Writing a Thesis (Undergraduate or Masters) or a Dissertation (PhD)

This page hosts blog posts I’ve written on how to write different parts of the dissertation, from the introduction to the concluding chapter. Because most of my students use the 3 papers dissertation model, much of my focus here is on assembling a coherent dissertation by combining the three papers, but these posts apply (with adjustments) to a book manuscript-style dissertation. They can also be adjusted to undergraduate and Masters’ theses.
