Writing a thesis at Doctoral level is compulsory to be completed by every student to be able to get the doctorate degree. In thesis writing , the scholars must keep in mind some basic points which include metaphorical hypothesis, literature review and research results. Doctoral thesis has many prerequisites and essentials that should be handled very cautiously. If a single requirement is missed by the researcher, the tempo of the entire thesis will be spoiled. Some elementary techniques to write a doctoral thesis are as follows:
Doctoral thesis must have an appropriate format and style. Doctoral students should be highly qualified to illustrate their acquaintance and understanding of the topic. A scholar while writing the thesis should be fully aware about internationally recognized pattern of thesis. In a doctoral thesis, the following headings must be included:
At the final stage of Doctorate degree, every doctor has to submit a completed thesis either via soft copy or hard copy. Although it is expected from every student that he/she will do it perfectly to get the degree with distinction. However, the PhD level won’t be completed unless the doctor obtains the required passing marks in the written thesis. In order to complete a thesis, the students have to encounter the viva of a scrupulous board; their thoughts have to be indicated into a specific problem. Dissertation Writers UK can support the scholars to write their thesis papers aptly.
At doctoral level, the scholars have to pronounce the methodology to be used to gather required data and information from the public. Furthermore, the whole preceding scholastic investigation is compiled in the literature review. In a thesis at doctoral level, the scholar is also projected to offer methodical data by opposing all kinds of assumptions and fake facts and figures.
It is expected that by keeping in mind all the above mentioned recommended guidelines, the PhD students can be able to write their theses appropriately and may communicate their ideas and opinions in an inspiring method. However, in case of any problem, they may contact and hire the services of PhD Dissertation Writing Service to achieve their academic goals with surefire success.

8 straightforward steps to craft an a-grade dissertation.
By: Derek Jansen (MBA) Expert Reviewed By: Dr Eunice Rautenbach | June 2020
Writing a dissertation or thesis is not a simple task. It takes time, energy and a lot of will power to get you across the finish line. It’s not easy – but it doesn’t necessarily need to be a painful process. If you understand the big-picture process of how to write a dissertation or thesis, your research journey will be a lot smoother.
In this post, I’m going to outline the big-picture process of how to write a high-quality dissertation or thesis, without losing your mind along the way. If you’re just starting your research, this post is perfect for you. Alternatively, if you’ve already submitted your proposal, this article which covers how to structure a dissertation might be more helpful.
This probably sounds like a no-brainer, but all too often, students come to us for help with their research and the underlying issue is that they don’t fully understand what a dissertation (or thesis) actually is.
So, what is a dissertation?
At its simplest, a dissertation or thesis is a formal piece of research , reflecting the standard research process . But what is the standard research process, you ask? The research process involves 4 key steps:
In short, the research process is simply about asking and answering questions in a systematic fashion . This probably sounds pretty obvious, but people often think they’ve done “research”, when in fact what they have done is:
If you want to see the perfect example of this in action, look out for the next Facebook post where someone claims they’ve done “research”… All too often, people consider reading a few blog posts to constitute research. Its no surprise then that what they end up with is an opinion piece, not research. Okay, okay – I’ll climb off my soapbox now.
The key takeaway here is that a dissertation (or thesis) is a formal piece of research, reflecting the research process. It’s not an opinion piece , nor a place to push your agenda or try to convince someone of your position. Writing a good dissertation involves asking a question and taking a systematic, rigorous approach to answering it.
If you understand this and are comfortable leaving your opinions or preconceived ideas at the door, you’re already off to a good start!
As we saw, the first step of the research process is to ask a specific, well-articulated question. In other words, you need to find a research topic that asks a specific question or set of questions (these are called research questions ). Sounds easy enough, right? All you’ve got to do is identify a question or two and you’ve got a winning research topic. Well, not quite…
A good dissertation or thesis topic has a few important attributes. Specifically, a solid research topic should be:
Let’s take a closer look at these:
Attribute #1: Clear
Your research topic needs to be crystal clear about what you’re planning to research, what you want to know, and within what context. There shouldn’t be any ambiguity or vagueness about what you’ll research.
Here’s an example of a clearly articulated research topic:
An analysis of consumer-based factors influencing organisational trust in British low-cost online equity brokerage firms.
As you can see in the example, its crystal clear what will be analysed (factors impacting organisational trust), amongst who (consumers) and in what context (British low-cost equity brokerage firms, based online).
Attribute #2: Unique
Your research should be asking a question(s) that hasn’t been asked before, or that hasn’t been asked in a specific context (for example, in a specific country or industry).
For example, sticking organisational trust topic above, it’s quite likely that organisational trust factors in the UK have been investigated before, but the context (online low-cost equity brokerages) could make this research unique. Therefore, the context makes this research original.
One caveat when using context as the basis for originality – you need to have a good reason to suspect that your findings in this context might be different from the existing research – otherwise, there’s no reason to warrant researching it.
Attribute #3: Important
Simply asking a unique or original question is not enough – the question needs to create value. In other words, successfully answering your research questions should provide some value to the field of research or the industry. You can’t research something just to satisfy your curiosity. It needs to make some form of contribution either to research or industry.
For example, researching the factors influencing consumer trust would create value by enabling businesses to tailor their operations and marketing to leverage factors that promote trust. In other words, it would have a clear benefit to industry.
So, how do you go about finding a unique and valuable research topic? We explain that in detail in this video post – How To Find A Research Topic . Yeah, we’ve got you covered 😊
Once you’ve pinned down a high-quality research topic, the next step is to convince your university to let you research it. No matter how awesome you think your topic is, it still needs to get the rubber stamp before you can move forward with your research. The research proposal is the tool you’ll use for this job.
So, what’s in a research proposal?
The main “job” of a research proposal is to convince your university, advisor or committee that your research topic is worthy of approval. But convince them of what? Well, this varies from university to university, but generally, they want to see that:
At the proposal stage, it’s (generally) not expected that you’ve extensively reviewed the existing literature , but you will need to show that you’ve done enough reading to identify a clear gap for original (unique) research. Similarly, they generally don’t expect that you have a rock-solid research methodology mapped out, but you should have an idea of whether you’ll be undertaking qualitative or quantitative analysis , and how you’ll collect your data (we’ll discuss this in more detail later).
Long story short – don’t stress about having every detail of your research meticulously thought out at the proposal stage – this will develop as you progress through your research. However, you do need to show that you’ve “done your homework” and that your research is worthy of approval .
So, how do you go about crafting a high-quality, convincing proposal? We cover that in detail in this video post – How To Write A Top-Class Research Proposal . We’ve also got a video walkthrough of two proposal examples here .
Once your proposal’s been approved, its time to get writing your actual dissertation or thesis! The good news is that if you put the time into crafting a high-quality proposal, you’ve already got a head start on your first three chapters – introduction, literature review and methodology – as you can use your proposal as the basis for these.

What’s the introduction chapter all about?
The purpose of the introduction chapter is to set the scene for your research (dare I say, to introduce it…) so that the reader understands what you’ll be researching and why it’s important. In other words, it covers the same ground as the research proposal in that it justifies your research topic.
What goes into the introduction chapter?
This can vary slightly between universities and degrees, but generally, the introduction chapter will include the following:
As you can see, this all about explaining the “what” and the “why” of your research (as opposed to the “how”). So, your introduction chapter is basically the salesman of your study, “selling” your research to the first-time reader and (hopefully) getting them interested to read more.
How do I write the introduction chapter, you ask? We cover that in detail in this post .
As I mentioned earlier, you’ll need to do some initial review of the literature in Steps 2 and 3 to find your research gap and craft a convincing research proposal – but that’s just scratching the surface. Once you reach the literature review stage of your dissertation or thesis, you need to dig a lot deeper into the existing research and write up a comprehensive literature review chapter.
What’s the literature review all about?
There are two main stages in the literature review process:
The first stage is for you to deep dive into the existing literature (journal articles, textbook chapters, industry reports, etc) to gain an in-depth understanding of the current state of research regarding your topic. While you don’t need to read every single article, you do need to ensure that you cover all literature that is related to your core research questions, and create a comprehensive catalogue of that literature , which you’ll use in the next step.
Reading and digesting all the relevant literature is a time consuming and intellectually demanding process. Many students underestimate just how much work goes into this step, so make sure that you allocate a good amount of time for this when planning out your research. Thankfully, there are ways to fast track the process – be sure to check out this article covering how to read journal articles quickly .
Once you’ve worked through the literature and digested it all, you’ll need to write up your literature review chapter. Many students make the mistake of thinking that the literature review chapter is simply a summary of what other researchers have said. While this is partly true, a literature review is much more than just a summary. To pull off a good literature review chapter, you’ll need to achieve at least 3 things:
As you can see, a good literature review is more than just a summary of the published research. It’s the foundation on which your own research is built, so it deserves a lot of love and attention. Take the time to craft a comprehensive literature review with a suitable structure .
But, how do I actually write the literature review chapter, you ask? We cover that in detail in this video post .
Once you’ve completed your literature review and have a sound understanding of the existing research, its time to develop your own research (finally!). You’ll design this research specifically so that you can find the answers to your unique research question.
There are two steps here – designing your research strategy and executing on it:
The first step is to design your research strategy and craft a methodology chapter . I won’t get into the technicalities of the methodology chapter here, but in simple terms, this chapter is about explaining the “how” of your research. If you recall, the introduction and literature review chapters discussed the “what” and the “why”, so it makes sense that the next point to cover is the “how” –that’s what the methodology chapter is all about.
In this section, you’ll need to make firm decisions about your research design. This includes things like:
If these words have got your head spinning, don’t worry! We’ll explain these in plain language in other posts. It’s not essential that you understand the intricacies of research design (yet!). The key takeaway here is that you’ll need to make decisions about how you’ll design your own research, and you’ll need to describe (and justify) your decisions in your methodology chapter.
Once you’ve worked out your research design, you’ll put it into action and start collecting your data. This might mean undertaking interviews, hosting an online survey or any other data collection method. Data collection can take quite a bit of time (especially if you host in-person interviews), so be sure to factor sufficient time into your project plan for this. Oftentimes, things don’t go 100% to plan (for example, you don’t get as many survey responses as you hoped for), so bake a little extra time into your budget here.
Once you’ve collected your data, you’ll need to do some data preparation before you can sink your teeth into the analysis. For example:
Once you’ve completed your data prep, you’ll undertake your analysis, using the techniques that you described in your methodology. Depending on what you find in your analysis, you might also do some additional forms of analysis that you hadn’t planned for. For example, you might see something in the data that raises new questions or that requires clarification with further analysis.
The type(s) of analysis that you’ll use depend entirely on the nature of your research and your research questions. For example:
Again, if these words have got your head spinning, don’t worry! We’ll explain these concepts and techniques in other posts. The key takeaway is simply that there’s no “one size fits all” for research design and methodology – it all depends on your topic, your research questions and your data. So, don’t be surprised if your study colleagues take a completely different approach to yours.
Once you’ve completed your analysis, it’s time to present your findings (finally!). In a dissertation or thesis, you’ll typically present your findings in two chapters – the results chapter and the discussion chapter .
What’s the difference between the results chapter and the discussion chapter?
While these two chapters are similar, the results chapter generally just presents the processed data neatly and clearly without interpretation, while the discussion chapter explains the story the data are telling – in other words, it provides your interpretation of the results.
For example, if you were researching the factors that influence consumer trust, you might have used a quantitative approach to identify the relationship between potential factors (e.g. perceived integrity and competence of the organisation) and consumer trust. In this case:
Depending on the university and degree, these two chapters (results and discussion) are sometimes merged into one , so be sure to check with your institution what their preference is. Regardless of the chapter structure, this section is about presenting the findings of your research in a clear, easy to understand fashion.
Importantly, your discussion here needs to link back to your research questions (which you outlined in the introduction or literature review chapter). In other words, it needs to answer the key questions you asked (or at least attempt to answer them).
For example, if we look at the sample research topic:
In this case, the discussion section would clearly outline which factors seem to have a noteworthy influence on organisational trust. By doing so, they are answering the overarching question and fulfilling the purpose of the research .
For more information about the results chapter , check out this post for qualitative studies and this post for quantitative studies .
Last but not least, you’ll need to wrap up your research with the conclusion chapter . In this chapter, you’ll bring your research full circle by highlighting the key findings of your study and explaining what the implications of these findings are.
What exactly are key findings? The key findings are those findings which directly relate to your original research questions and overall research objectives (which you discussed in your introduction chapter). The implications, on the other hand, explain what your findings mean for industry, or for research in your area.
Sticking with the consumer trust topic example, the conclusion might look something like this:
Key findings
This study set out to identify which factors influence consumer-based trust in British low-cost online equity brokerage firms. The results suggest that the following factors have a large impact on consumer trust:
While the following factors have a very limited impact on consumer trust:
Notably, within the 25-30 age groups, Factors E had a noticeably larger impact, which may be explained by…
Implications
The findings having noteworthy implications for British low-cost online equity brokers. Specifically:
The large impact of Factors X and Y implies that brokers need to consider….
The limited impact of Factor E implies that brokers need to…
As you can see, the conclusion chapter is basically explaining the “what” (what your study found) and the “so what?” (what the findings mean for the industry or research). This brings the study full circle and closes off the document.
You’re still with me? Impressive! I know that this post was a long one, but hopefully you’ve learnt a thing or two about how to write a dissertation or thesis, and are now better equipped to start your own research.
To recap, the 8 steps to writing a quality dissertation (or thesis) are as follows:
Once you’ve wrapped up the core chapters, all that’s typically left is the abstract , reference list and appendices. As always, be sure to check with your university if they have any additional requirements in terms of structure or content.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions 🙂
Hello, your write ups is quite educative. However, l have challenges in going about my research questions which is below; *Building the enablers of organisational growth through effective governance and purposeful leadership.*
Very educating.
Just listening to the name of the dissertation makes the student nervous. As writing a top-quality dissertation is a difficult task as it is a lengthy topic, requires a lot of research and understanding and is usually around 10,000 to 15000 words. Sometimes due to studies, unbalanced workload or lack of research and writing skill students look for dissertation submission from professional writers.
Thank you 💕😊 very much. I was confused but your comprehensive explanation has cleared my doubts of ever presenting a good thesis. Thank you.
thank you so much, that was so useful

Preserving the art of the rudimental percussionist
Hybrid rudiments are the combining of two or more rudiments to create a new rudiment or rudiment pattern. This is not always the case as there are instances of hybrids containing only one rudiment, but have become universally recognized and adopted as a common rudiment pattern. Since there are an infinite number of combinations and stickings, there is no official list of hybrid rudiments, and new hybrids are no doubt created almost daily. Even the names can vary for the same hybrid. There are currently 500+ more widely accepted hybrid rudiments.
Before embarking on these hybrids, a solid foundation in the 40 International Drum Rudiments should be mastered first. Hybrid rudiments can be challenging and great fun, as well as aid in the ongoing development of any rudimental drummer. I will periodically add links to a sampling of the growing number of hybrid rudiments. Each sheet contains 5 hybrid rudiments arranged from least to most difficult. While these are not arranged from sheet to sheet in any particular order (except by difficulty within each self-contained sheet), some hybrids on latter sheets build on hybrids introduced in previous sheets, so I recommend viewing them in order. I’ve selected most based on how fun they are to play so have fun with these and drum on!
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 1
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 2
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 3
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 4
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 5
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 6 (a bit of fun with flams)
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 7
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 8
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 9 (in this one, the first two build on one another, as do the last three)
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 10
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 11
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 12 (all about that Para-pa-diddle)
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 13
Hybrid Rudiments – Sheet 14
Book Reports (a Progressive Development Guide)
[…] Hybrid Rudiments […]
Pages 6 – 9 of Hybrid rudiments are missing.
Could you please forward in PDF.
Many thanks.
Thanks for pointing that out. I’ve fixed the broken links and have also added a new sheet. Enjoy and Happy Drumming!

Drum rudiments are the building blocks of percussion, playing a crucial role in the development of coordination, timing, and technique for drummers. Just as a solid foundation is essential for any structure, mastering these rudiments is key to becoming a proficient drummer. They consist of patterns and strokes that serve as the basic vocabulary used to create more complex rhythms and drum patterns.
Understanding and practicing drum rudiments allows you to enhance your musical expression and technical ability on the drum set. They are often employed in various musical genres, from marching percussion to rock, jazz, and classical. Whether you’re a beginner aiming to establish your groove or an advanced player looking to refine your skills, learning drum rudiments is an indispensable part of drumming education.
Learning the rudiments of drumming opens the door to mastering complex rhythms and enhances your musical versatility. This foundational skill set serves as the building blocks for all drum patterns and techniques you will encounter in your percussion journey.
Drum rudiments are to drumming what scales are to melody; they are essential patterns that form the basis of drumming technique. Percussion music is built upon these rudiments, which consist of various sticking patterns used for creating rhythm. Your first challenge is to learn these patterns, as they are the alphabets of your drumming language.
Constant practice is the key to growing your drumming skills. Engaging in regular practice sessions with a focus on rudiments strengthens muscle memory and ensures steady growth in your proficiency. Use a practice pad to begin with, sparing your ears while honing your technique.
Choosing the correct tools is essential for effective practice. Start with quality drum sticks, possibly from recognized brands like Vic Firth. Also, equip yourself with a snare drum or practice pad from reputable manufacturers like Pearl Drums or Remo to ensure you have a realistic and responsive surface to work on.
Single stroke rudiments are fundamental to drumming. They consist of consecutive stick hits, alternating between your left and right hand. Begin with the single stroke roll, single stroke four, and single stroke seven:
Double strokes and variations are your next stepping stones. The goal is to develop control and speed without sacrificing precision. You start with double strokes (RR LL) and practice until they are as natural and even as your single strokes. Remember, your growth as a drummer is directly proportional to the effort you put into mastering these rudiments.
Keep your learning paced and focused, and you will see measurable improvement in your drumming capabilities.
Drum rudiments are the fundamental patterns that every drummer must master to excel in playing percussion music. They’re the building blocks for your coordination and technique, crucial for developing fluidity and precision on the drum kit.
The Double Stroke Open Roll consists of a sequence of alternating double strokes (RRLLRRLL) that are played with an open ‘bouncing’ motion. This rudiment is a gateway to achieving smooth, sustained rolls and crucial for control at varying tempos.
Diddle rudiments begin with the Single Paradiddle (RLRR LRLL), blending singles and doubles. Your progression will include the Double Paradiddle (RLRLRR LRLRLL) and the Triple Paradiddle (RLRLRLRR LRLRLRLL), expanding your versatility in combination strokes.
Flam patterns add dynamic texture. The Flam Tap (RlR lRl) alternates with accented notes preceded by a ‘grace’ note, while the Flam Accent (Rlrr Llrr) and the Flam Paradiddle (Rlrr lrLL) combine flams with other rudiments to develop complex sticking patterns.
Drag rudiments incorporate grace notes, leading into the primary stroke. The Single Drag Tap (RllR lRll) and Double Drag Tap (Rllrr lRllrr) will help you master the controlled bounce, leading up to more challenging patterns like the Drag Paradiddle #1 and #2 .
Rolls are characterized by their seamless sound. The Multiple Bounce Roll (buzz roll) and the Five Stroke Roll (RRLLR LLRRL) through to the Seventeen Stroke Roll involve consecutive doubles or pressed strokes which need to be practiced to achieve evenness and clarity in their execution.
Lastly, you have the Triple Stroke Roll (RRR LLL), which requires three rapid bounces per hand. Mastering this rudiment builds the endurance, control, and finesse needed for playing more complex patterns and maintaining consistent rolls during your drumming sessions.
To enhance your drumming technique, exploring advanced rudimental patterns offers a pathway to masterful control and creativity on the drum set. This pursuit requires dedication to practice and an understanding of how to integrate complex patterns into musical expressions.
Hybrid rudiments combine elements of basic rudiments to form new, complex patterns, thereby expanding your rhythmic vocabulary. For instance, the Herta , a hybrid rudiment, is a drag-riddled pattern that involves alternating double and single strokes. Begin practicing slowly to ensure accuracy before increasing speed.
Understanding and executing the Ratamacue family— Single Ratamacue , Double Ratamacue , and Triple Ratamacue —enhances rhythmic dexterity. When combined with paradiddles, such as a Flam Paradiddle-Diddle , they offer dynamic possibilities within orchestral and solo performances, as well as in drum corps settings.
Combination Example:
Crafting compelling drum fills requires seamless integration of rudiments. Start with familiar patterns like single and double strokes, and then weave in flam and drag rudiments to add texture. Flam Rudiments and Drag Rudiments can elevate a simple drum fill to a captivating musical statement within a piece.
Drum Fill Integration:
Flams and drags add a percussive flourish to your drumming. Precision is key to mastering Flam Rudiments like the Inverted Flam Tap and the Flam Paradiddle , as well as Drag Rudiments including the Flam Drag . Practice these with a metronome to build a consistent and crisp execution.
Technique Tips:
Drum rudiments are fundamental patterns crucial for developing finesse and fluency on the drums. Your ability to creatively apply these patterns will enhance your drumming in various musical contexts.
Incorporating rudiments into your drumset grooves adds complexity and texture. Practice single and double strokes within rock, funk, or jazz grooves to create dynamic music. Begin with a simple:
Tip: Loop the basic groove, then gradually introduce the paradiddle, maintaining a steady tempo to enhance your coordination and timing.
Within marching and drum corps, rudiments are essential for crisp, uniform group performance. The traditional:
When practicing, aim for consistency in stick heights and clarity to match the precision of the drum corps.
Orchestral percussionists use rudiments to articulate passages and achieve clarity. For example:
While practicing, focus on control, particularly at varying dynamics, to suit the nuanced requirements of orchestral music.
Rudiments are building blocks for dynamic solos and improvisation. Develop:
Practice soloing over a set chord progression to ingrain timing and to enhance your improvisational skills.
Good coordination and precise timing stem from mastering rudiments. Utilize a metronome to develop:
Regular, focused practice on a pad or drumset will embed these skills, ensuring greater competence in all performance areas.
In exploring the extensive tapestry of drum rudiments, you’ll discover their profound historical significance and cultural permeation, from European origins to their codification in America and educational advancements.
Drum rudiments, the fundamental patterns utilized by percussionists, have evolved primarily from military drumming traditions in Europe. Your understanding of rudiments may begin with the simple strokes and rolls found in the 16th century Swiss Basel drumming, but it significantly grew in complexity over time. This growth included the formalizing of the Standard 26 American Drum Rudiments post-Civil War, which derived from European traditions and were adapted in the United States to create a formal pedagogical structure for drummers.
Rudiments have been shaped by a variety of cultural influences. For instance, in Vienna , percussionists developed a unique style that impacted the European drumming landscape. Similarly, in London , distinct playing techniques influenced the drum rudiments used in military and orchestral music. Your appreciation for drum rudiments should account for their multicultural origins, recognizing that while styles and techniques vary, these rudiments form a universal language across the percussion community.
Two key players in the perpetuation and education of drum rudiments include the Percussive Arts Society (PAS) and educators like Vic Firth and Jay Wanamaker . PAS has been instrumental in preserving and advancing percussion music. Vic Firth, a renowned percussionist, and educator, alongside Jay Wanamaker, a notable figure in the music industry, have contributed to the dissemination and standardization of drum rudiments through educational materials and by endorsing quality percussion instruments and accessories. Their efforts have played a pivotal role in promoting the systematic instruction of drum rudiments worldwide.

Remember, each practice session builds upon the last, contributing to your overall growth. Through disciplined practice, you will not only develop control and speed but also expand your creative expression behind the drum kit. Stay relaxed, focused, and patient—proficiency doesn’t come overnight, but with persistence, you’ll reach new heights in your drumming journey.
Drum rudiments are essential patterns used as a foundation for percussionists. These patterns are categorized by the Percussive Arts Society (PAS) into three main groups, totalizing 40 rudiments. You’ll encounter these as Roll Rudiments , Diddle Rudiments , and Flam Rudiments . Each category has its own unique characteristics and applications.
Roll Rudiments are typically played in a continuous, alternating sticking pattern that creates a sustained sound. They can be either single-stroked or double-stroked:
Diddle Rudiments include the paradiddle, an alternating combination of single and double strokes that allows for hand transitions while maintaining rhythm.
Flam Rudiments incorporate flams, which are grace notes preceding the primary stroke, adding texture and complexity.
Before the PAS standardized the 40 rudiments, drummers referred to the Standard 26 American Drum Rudiments , which are a subset and still an integral part of the broader PAS list.
Understanding the classification of these rudiments will help you grasp the basic structures in drumming and lead to more advanced techniques. Remember, mastery of these patterns will significantly enhance your drumming vocabulary.
When delving into the world of drum rudiments, equipping yourself with quality products and accessories is essential. Vic Firth is synonymous with drumsticks and offers a range with varying weights and sizes to suit your play style. Select a pair that feels comfortable for executing precise rudimental patterns.
For practice pads, Remo has options that closely mimic the feel of a real drum, essential for honing your rudiment skills. A good practice pad can make a significant difference in your dynamic control and endurance.

A research proposal describes what you will investigate, why it’s important, and how you will conduct your research.
The format of a research proposal varies between fields, but most proposals will contain at least these elements:
Literature review.
While the sections may vary, the overall objective is always the same. A research proposal serves as a blueprint and guide for your research plan, helping you get organized and feel confident in the path forward you choose to take.
Research proposal purpose, research proposal examples, research design and methods, contribution to knowledge, research schedule, other interesting articles, frequently asked questions about research proposals.
Academics often have to write research proposals to get funding for their projects. As a student, you might have to write a research proposal as part of a grad school application , or prior to starting your thesis or dissertation .
In addition to helping you figure out what your research can look like, a proposal can also serve to demonstrate why your project is worth pursuing to a funder, educational institution, or supervisor.
Show your reader why your project is interesting, original, and important. | |
Demonstrate your comfort and familiarity with your field. Show that you understand the current state of research on your topic. | |
Make a case for your . Demonstrate that you have carefully thought about the data, tools, and procedures necessary to conduct your research. | |
Confirm that your project is feasible within the timeline of your program or funding deadline. |
The length of a research proposal can vary quite a bit. A bachelor’s or master’s thesis proposal can be just a few pages, while proposals for PhD dissertations or research funding are usually much longer and more detailed. Your supervisor can help you determine the best length for your work.
One trick to get started is to think of your proposal’s structure as a shorter version of your thesis or dissertation , only without the results , conclusion and discussion sections.

Writing a research proposal can be quite challenging, but a good starting point could be to look at some examples. We’ve included a few for you below.
Like your dissertation or thesis, the proposal will usually have a title page that includes:
The first part of your proposal is the initial pitch for your project. Make sure it succinctly explains what you want to do and why.
Your introduction should:
To guide your introduction , include information about:
As you get started, it’s important to demonstrate that you’re familiar with the most important research on your topic. A strong literature review shows your reader that your project has a solid foundation in existing knowledge or theory. It also shows that you’re not simply repeating what other people have already done or said, but rather using existing research as a jumping-off point for your own.
In this section, share exactly how your project will contribute to ongoing conversations in the field by:
Following the literature review, restate your main objectives . This brings the focus back to your own project. Next, your research design or methodology section will describe your overall approach, and the practical steps you will take to answer your research questions.
? or ? , , or research design? | |
, )? ? | |
, , , )? | |
? |
To finish your proposal on a strong note, explore the potential implications of your research for your field. Emphasize again what you aim to contribute and why it matters.
For example, your results might have implications for:
Last but not least, your research proposal must include correct citations for every source you have used, compiled in a reference list . To create citations quickly and easily, you can use our free APA citation generator .
Some institutions or funders require a detailed timeline of the project, asking you to forecast what you will do at each stage and how long it may take. While not always required, be sure to check the requirements of your project.
Here’s an example schedule to help you get started. You can also download a template at the button below.

If you are applying for research funding, chances are you will have to include a detailed budget. This shows your estimates of how much each part of your project will cost.
Make sure to check what type of costs the funding body will agree to cover. For each item, include:
To determine your budget, think about:
If you want to know more about the research process , methodology , research bias , or statistics , make sure to check out some of our other articles with explanations and examples.
Methodology
Statistics
Research bias
Once you’ve decided on your research objectives , you need to explain them in your paper, at the end of your problem statement .
Keep your research objectives clear and concise, and use appropriate verbs to accurately convey the work that you will carry out for each one.
I will compare …
A research aim is a broad statement indicating the general purpose of your research project. It should appear in your introduction at the end of your problem statement , before your research objectives.
Research objectives are more specific than your research aim. They indicate the specific ways you’ll address the overarching aim.
A PhD, which is short for philosophiae doctor (doctor of philosophy in Latin), is the highest university degree that can be obtained. In a PhD, students spend 3–5 years writing a dissertation , which aims to make a significant, original contribution to current knowledge.
A PhD is intended to prepare students for a career as a researcher, whether that be in academia, the public sector, or the private sector.
A master’s is a 1- or 2-year graduate degree that can prepare you for a variety of careers.
All master’s involve graduate-level coursework. Some are research-intensive and intend to prepare students for further study in a PhD; these usually require their students to write a master’s thesis . Others focus on professional training for a specific career.
Critical thinking refers to the ability to evaluate information and to be aware of biases or assumptions, including your own.
Like information literacy , it involves evaluating arguments, identifying and solving problems in an objective and systematic way, and clearly communicating your ideas.
The best way to remember the difference between a research plan and a research proposal is that they have fundamentally different audiences. A research plan helps you, the researcher, organize your thoughts. On the other hand, a dissertation proposal or research proposal aims to convince others (e.g., a supervisor, a funding body, or a dissertation committee) that your research topic is relevant and worthy of being conducted.

Shutkin awarded 2023-2024 fulbright-hays doctoral dissertation research abroad grant.
Tal Shutkin , a doctoral candidate in the Department of Geography at The Ohio State University, has been awarded the prestigious Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Dissertation Research Abroad (DDRA) Fellowship by the U.S. Department of Education, International and Foreign Language Education (IFLE) office. Shutkin will conduct research for his dissertation for seven months in Peru examining “Glacier Change and Social Hydrology of the Cordillera Huaytapallana.”
The Andes of Peru host the world’s greatest concentration of glaciers existing in the tropics, which have evolved with the tropical climate over many millennia. Today, in the era of anthropogenic climate warming, these glaciers are rapidly disappearing, triggering social-environmental change across the region. Shutkin’s dissertation research evaluates the changes in Peru’s Cordillera Huaytapallana, a glacierized range near Huancayo, the capital city of the department of Junin.
Shutkin asks three complementary questions. One, how have the glaciers of the Cordillera Huaytapallana evolved since the Little Ice Age (~500 years BP) and what impact has this had on water availability? Two, what are the cascading glacio-hydrological impacts of contemporary glacier loss in watersheds with varying physical characteristics including remaining glacier ice volume, hypsometry, and aspect? Three, how do the social-environmental systems differ between these watersheds and to what extent do these differences impact experiences of and contributions to environmental change?
A physical geography PhD candidate, Shutkin is fascinated by the interplay of climate, water, and landscape in social-environmental systems. He will pursue this dissertation research using geomorphological, hydrological, and social scientific field methods, as well as statistical and numerical modeling, thereby contributing to a transdisciplinary assessment of the region’s evolving geography.
Shutkin earned his Bachelor of Science in environment and natural resources in 2019 and his Master of Arts in geography in 2022, both from The Ohio State University. His research focuses on the high tropical Andean environment, where communities situated in close proximity to glaciers rely on the mountains to provide water. He uses field-based and glacier modeling approaches to understand how past climate change drove glacier advances which carved out the tropical Andean landscape and how modern climate change is driving ice loss and altering seasonal water availability. His faculty advisor is Bryan Mark .

Students who have enrolled in dissertation or thesis credits will prepare a manuscript to publish through ProQuest/UMI Dissertation Publishing. You own and retain the copyright to your manuscript. The Graduate School collects the manuscript via electronic submissions only. All manuscripts are made available through ProQuest Dissertations and Theses database (PQDT), in ProQuest/UMI’s Dissertation Abstracts International, and through the University’s institutional repository, ScholarWorks.
Getting started with campus resources:
Jump to a section
ProQuest electronic submission site
Set up an account with ProQuest and wait for a password sent via email. ProQuest offers email and phone support, 1-877-408-5027 , frequently asked questions, etc. Visit the site early to familiarize yourself with the submission process.
The Graduate School requires standardized formatting for the dissertation and thesis documents. Students will follow a style guide (APA, MLA, etc.) to prepare their document; however, the document must comply with University formatting requirements listed below.
Fonts should be easy to read. Times New Roman, Arial, or a similarly clear font is preferred; type size must be 10, 11, or 12 points. Script and italic typefaces are not acceptable except where absolutely necessary i.e. in Latin designations of species, etc.
In preparing your dissertation or thesis for electronic submission, you must embed all fonts. In Microsoft Word 2013, this is done by accessing the FILE menu; selecting OPTIONS, select SAVE. From the SAVE menu check the box labeled, ”Embed fonts in the file.” If the file size is a concern, check the box next to “Do NOT embed common system fonts."
Large tables, charts, etc., may be reduced to conform to page size, but the print must remain clear enough to be readable. You can also attach a PDF for electronic submissions.
Every page, with the exception of the title page, the copyright page, and the committee approval page is numbered in the upper right-hand corner, one-half inch from the top of the page and one inch from the right edge of the page. Do not underline or place a period after the number. Do not use a running header.
Tables and appendices are part of the document and must conform to the same margin and page numbering requirements.
Assemble pages in the following order:
No page number on this page. Although not required, we strongly recommend you insert a copyright notice in your manuscript following the title page. Essential components of the copyright notice include the copyright symbol, full legal name of the author, and year of first publication. Follow the format of the sample provided below.
(Lower case Roman numeral “i” page number)
Abstracts are required for all theses and dissertations. ProQuest no longer has a word limit on the abstract, “as this constrains your ability to describe your research in a section that is accessible to search engines, and therefore would constrain potential exposure of your work.” ProQuest does publish print indices that include citations and abstracts of all dissertations and theses published by ProQuest/UMI. These print indices require word limits of 350 words for doctoral dissertations and 150 words for master’s theses (only text will be included in the abstract). You may wish to limit the length of your abstract if this concerns you. The abstracts as you submit them will NOT be altered in your published manuscript.
Each copy of your thesis or dissertation will be checked for margins, clarity of copy, and pagination. The Graduate School will run the manuscript through the Turn It In plagiarism tool.
Electronically submitted theses/dissertations are available in electronic format only; no hard copies will be produced. Students are responsible for binding any copies for personal use or for distribution to their advisor, department, or committee members.
Mandatory processing fees are required for all theses ($85.00) and all dissertations ($95.00). Log into your Student Center in MyNEVADA. Under the Finances section, click on the link “Purchase Miscellaneous Items.” Select the applicable processing fee to pay (Dissertation or Thesis) and complete the transaction. You will receive a receipt that generates overnight. Please keep this item as proof of payment for your records. Our office will automatically check for payment posted.
You must certify in ProQuest that any copyrighted material used in your work, beyond brief excerpts, is with the written permission of the copyright owner. Attach copies of permission letters to the agreement form.
Students have the opportunity to register a copyright on their graduate work with the U.S. Copyright Office. It is strictly optional, and there is a $75.00 fee associated with the service. Students submitting electronically pay online. Paying for the claim to copyright is a voluntary action, which allows a court of law to award monetary damages if the copyright is infringed. You may file a Registration of Copyright yourself by sending a properly completed application form, a nonrefundable filing fee of $45.00 and a nonreturnable copy of your thesis or dissertation to the United States Copyright Office. Application materials and instructions are available from:
Register of Copyrights Copyright Office Library of Congress Washington, D.C. 20559-6000 Information is also available at the Copyright Office’s website: lcweb.loc.gov/copyright
ScholarWorks - the University's institutional repository - assists in collecting, preserving, and distributing the university's intellectual output accessible to end-users on local and global levels with few if any barriers. The repository will provide long-term access to the items deposited and can accept works from all the University faculty/staff/students. A wide variety of items including Articles, Datasets, Presentations, Technical Reports, Thesis and Dissertations, Posters, Conference Papers, etc. in all file formats can be deposited into the repository. The repository supports creative commons licensing and open-access publishing without any cost.
The discovery services and search engine optimizations ensure that major search engines easily discover the uploaded content. This increases the visibility, citations, and overall impact of the research. All items deposited in the repository receive a persistent URL that can be used for citations. Various statistics are collected with the built-in statistics module and Google Analytics modules. Information on monthly/yearly views, number of downloads, demographic information, etc. is available for each deposited item upon request.
All the ETDs uploaded into ProQuest are automatically deposited into the University's ScholarWorks repository. The embargo period set in ProQuest during deposit is carried over to the ScholarWorks repository. Any changes to the embargo period after deposit can be made by contacting ProQuest at 1-800-521-0600 as well as the ScholarWorks administrator at [email protected] .
Do I need to upload my ETD into the ScholarWorks repository?
Can I extend the embargo period on my Thesis/Dissertation after uploading it to ProQuest?
Can I make my ETD open access in the ScholarWorks repository?
These guidelines apply to those theses or dissertations which consist of a number of papers either previously published or being published concurrently with the submission of the thesis or dissertation. Acceptance and publication of the articles are not criteria for this alternative. Each of the papers should constitute a separate chapter of the overall work. Preceding the papers should be an introductory section. This section may be one or more chapters but should include:
The student’s advisory committee should determine the format and specific content of this introductory section.
The number of individual papers constituting chapters of the thesis/dissertation is determined by the student’s advisory committee. These chapters may be formatted in the same style required by the journals to which they are to be submitted. However, the margins must conform to those of the overall thesis, i.e. left margin = 1.5"; right margin = 1"; top margin = 1"; bottom margin = 1.25". In addition, each page must be numbered consistent with the rest of the thesis/dissertation, that is, the first page of text is numbered 1 with each subsequent page numbered consecutively until the end, to include all appendices, indexes, etc.
Following the chapters consisting of individual papers, there must follow a summary, conclusions and recommendations section. This section may be formatted as one or more chapters.
Work reported in the articles should represent a major contribution by the student that is the review of the literature, the conceptual framework and/or research design for the reported work. The statistical analyses, summaries, conclusions, and recommendations should represent the student’s own work.
For publication purposes, other researchers may be named as additional authors. This would be especially appropriate when publication is dependent upon extensive revision of the initial manuscript submitted and the faculty involved assumes responsibility for the revisions, or when the student is using an existing database.
When a student chooses this option, the articles will be submitted to the journals agreed upon by the concerned academic unit. Responsibility for follow-up, revisions, etc., should be identified in a written document and agreed upon by the student and faculty member(s) involved.
Please be sure to read the above instructions before proceeding with documents.
