Expectations

In order to successfully complete a thesis, students must manage the thesis process as well as the research. Students are responsible for coordinating their committee meetings, faculty schedules, data collection site, printing, copying, scheduling rooms and multimedia equipment, as well as an endless list of problems that may arise. The process can seem overwhelming at times.

However, the process is fairly straightforward if you have sufficient knowledge of what is necessary. This knowledge can then be used to formulate a thesis plan, as well as contingency plans to implement when problems occur. We hope these web pages will contribute to your knowledge regarding what is expected throughout the entire thesis process.

Completing a thesis is certainly a challenge—but it is well worth your time and effort!
