Step One: Create your plan


This is the scheduling portion of your assignment. You will know when the paper is due and you will know exactly how long you have to complete it. Break it down into feasible sections instead of trying to cram it all into the last month of school right before it is due. Determine a date to decide on your topic, a date to have your thesis written, a date to have a completed outline, a date to have your research completed on each topic, a date to have your rough draft complete, and a date for your final revisions.

Step Two: Decide on your topic


The first and most important step is to determine what you want to write about. You may already have an idea from the classes that you have taken over the years or you may have to do some research to find one.

Step Three: Start creating your outline and thesis statement


Get this portion of the assignment done early. You want to leave the majority of the time for research and writing. These are key components so make sure that you do take the time to do them but just don’t get too overwhelmed that you don’t give yourself time for the other portions.

Step Four: Research


Now that your outline is done, you can start doing research to get the factual evidence you need to prove your claims.

Step Five: Rough Draft


Start writing your paper. This is a rough draft so fell free to just write it and add what you have already. Once you have the rough draft complete you can start editing and adding to it until you know you have a complete paper.

These five simple steps are sure to make you excel at writing your dissertation. Good luck and get started now.
