  1. You Need To Read This Right Now! If you are one of those people who think a Thesis and a Dissertation are the same?

  2. Intro When completing a graduate degree program, students are required to produce a major research and writing project, such as a dissertation in a doctoral program or a thesis in a master’s program. These two projects are often confused, so what is the difference between a dissertation and a thesis? There are a few major differences and similarities between the two that are important for any potential graduate student to know.

  3. What is thesis? A thesis is an academic paper completed near the end of a student’s course of study for a master’s degree program. Note that most master’s degrees require the completion of a thesis for graduation. Some bachelor’s degree programs even require students to write an undergraduate thesis, which is typically shorter and less in-depth than a master’s degree thesis.

  4. What is dissertation? In contrast to a thesis, students working on a doctoral dissertation conduct their original research after reviewing the established research. The goal of a dissertation is not only to prove the student’s knowledge and skills but also to add to the existing body of knowledge in their field.
