So, you have your dissertation ready. It is indeed a great achievement that you have finished writing your dissertation. However, what many students do not realize is that there is a lot of editing that goes into the dissertation. As a student, you should never underestimate the amount of time that goes into editing it. Here is how you need to edit your dissertation work.
Review Your Entire Work
Make sure the title of your dissertation matches with the content. Also make sure you review the outline plan of the work before you. If you feel you have shifted focus while writing, you could always rephrase the topic of your dissertation. Have you defined your concepts and keywords early on? When you do that, your reader will not be confused at all when they come across them. Try to imagine a family member or a friend, who has absolutely no knowledge of the subject of your dissertation, reading your work, and edit it accordingly. Ask yourself whether you have done enough to make them understand the concepts.
Analysis Each Section
Go through each section and create titles for them. Check whether the points you have mentioned are directly relevant to the title. Does all the content that you have written belong in the particular section? Make sure you highlight those texts that do not belong in this section. Is there too little description and too much analysis in your dissertation? If yes, then you would need to change the way your dissertation has been written.
Review Each Paragraph
Make sure that each paragraph introduces the prospective reader to the idea that you would like to communicate. While editing such a big work, you should be careful not to miss editing certain points. Make sure you do not make any mistakes while editing your dissertation and also that you do not miss editing certain points.
