and complexities. It requires meticulous planning, extensive research, and unwavering dedication. In

1. Original Research: A thesis is a scholarly endeavor that demands originality. It requires


students to conduct thorough research within their chosen field of study, aiming to contribute

existing literature, identify gaps in knowledge, and formulate research questions that address

empirical evidence. Each section, from the introduction to the conclusion, contributes to the
overall narrative, guiding the reader through the research journey.

adhere to rigorous standards of citation and referencing, acknowledging the contributions of
previous scholars and maintaining transparency in their methodology.

significance of the research and its implications.
