The Third Edition of How to Write a Master's Thesis is a comprehensive manual on how to plan and write a five-chapter master’s thesis, and a great resource for graduate students looking for concrete, applied guidance on how to successfully complete their master's degrees. While research methods and statistics courses may teach students the basic information on how to conduct research, putting it all together into a single project and document can be a challenge. Author Yvonne Bui demystifies this process by integrating the language learned in prerequisite methods and statistics courses into a step-by-step guide for developing a student's own thesis or project.
“Yvonne Bui’s How to Write a Master’s Thesis should be mandatory for all thesis track master’s students. It steers students away from the shortcuts students may be tempted to use that would be costly in the long run. The step by step intentional approach is what I like best about this book.”
“This is the best textbook about writing an M.A. thesis available in the market.”
“This is the type of textbook that students keep and refer to after the class.”
Excellent book. Thorough, yet concise, information for students writing their Master's Thesis who may not have had a strong background in research.
Clear, Concise, easy for students to access and understand. Contains all the elements for a successful thesis.
I loved the ease of this book. It was clear without extra nonsense that would just confuse the students.
Clear, concise, easily accessible. Students find it of great value.
