This is a multi-part series on how I wrote my master’s thesis with lots of practical tips for anyone at any stage of the thesis-writing process.

After you’ve found a lab and supervisor you’re comfortable with, and you’ve made a rough plan of your thesis, it’s time to start thinking about what you’re actually going to do and write a research proposal.

The proposal is basically the first half of the research paper, written before the study is carried out. As such, it consists of an introduction and a methods section (typically in future tense). A research proposal answers the questions:

What are you going to do?

Why are you going to do it?

How are you going to do it?

Before you start

 If you already have a topic, you can skip this step, but if not, you’ll need to brainstorm first. There is so much interesting research out there it may seem a bit daunting at first, and if you try to read it all to find a topic you’re going to drown (and fail). Sit down and aks yourself: if I could only study one thing, what would it be? If you’ve made it so far in college that you’re writing a thesis, and you’ve found a supervisor you want to work with, chances are you already have a general idea of what you’re interested in within your field. What are some questions that you keep wondering? Are there certain methods you’d love to use (e.g., MRI)? Write these things down, discuss them with your supervisor if necessary, narrow it down. When you have an idea, see if there’s any literature on it.

I know I am presenting this a bit as if writing a thesis is a linear process, but in reality you keep going back and changing things, and you may not have finished your planning at this point. So it’s fine if you go to the next step and then go back here and do more brainstorming.

Literature search

Create a list of key words and synonyms

Use keyword modifiers such as “AND” , “OR”, * and ( ) to get more out of your keyword search

You can use Google scholar or a  database such as Web of Science to look for relevant papers using your keyword profile

Sort by relevance and start with the article that seems most relevant

Don’t worry about reading everything out there! You’re (probably) not writing a systematic review

Change your keyword profile if your interests change. If you read something in a paper that “sparks joy”, explore it further in your preferred database

Eventually you’ll find something that’s missing. Maybe you had a feeling all along or found a “future research” suggestion in a  recent paper

Create a file to summarise all the papers you’ve read because you will get lost and forget (e.g, this or this)

Here are some tips on reading scientific papers

Read the most important papers for your topic first, you’ll probably read more later

Reading never stops. You’ll be looking up new papers throughout the process

Summarising results into proposal

Really, the “summarising papers in a table format” is the best tip I’ve ever received!

It may help to first make a list of things you already know (because you read them in papers)

Take a writing course if you can! Many universities offer these, and there’s online options too!

A research proposal takes the  following form:

Abstract: I love this example, but in your proposal abstract you need to mention what we know, what we don’t know, and how you aim to solve the problem

Background/prior research (leading to next step): start with general information, like definitions, main theories or models, and then move into more specifically what you are going to add. This is answer to the why question.

Aim/purpose, research questions, and hypotheses: this should flow naturally from the previous step. Your research questions should support your aim, and your hypotheses should     directly link to your research questions. This is the answer to the what question.

Methods: what paradigms will you use to answer the question? Participant, materials, and data collection are all part of this section. This is the answer to the how question.

For my thesis proposal, I also had to include a schedule. I wrote tips on planning your thesis in the previous post

Some general tips

Start by writing the abstract, then rewrite it at the very end (this is a weird tip, but because the abstract is such a short summary, it helps you focus in the important things of your study)

Don’t write it from A to Z, but start with the things you already know. Then you know where the gaps are and can starting filling in your knowlegde

Make an outline before you start writing!!! An example of mine:

It’s easy to free up your cache and delete cookies. The option is immediately viewable in settings instead of hidden away in the alcoves of who knows where.

Unless you favorite a page, it automatically clears it after 7 days, which is awesome if you hate clearing tabs like I do.

They plant trees everywhere.

Ecosia updates you on their progress- not with annoying update notifications, but with a button you can click as you type up your search if you’re curious.

The tree count is shown just beneath the search bar.

It is an app too and only takes up 18.2 MB. That’s the equivalent of nine live pictures on your phone.

You can view your own tree count. Mine’s 2,475 trees. I have had the app for six months. Do you know how much acreage that is? It’s a heckin’ ton of acres.

Rutger Bregman is the Dutch historian who became a global sensation after an appearance at this year’s Davos summit, where he accused attending billionaires of ignoring taxation. Now he has created another viral moment in an extremely uncomfortable interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson.

Bregman so riled Carson with his accusations of hypocrisy, critiques of Fox’s conservative agenda, and attacks on Donald Trump that the TV host called him a “moron” and angrily told him: “Go fuck yourself.”

“Is it possible to turn things around by 2050? The answer is absolutely yes,” says Kai Chan, a professor at the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability at the University of British Columbia.

Many scientists have been telling us how the world will look like, if we don’t act now. However, others, like Chan, are tracking what success might look like.

They are not simply day-dreamers either. They aren’t being too optimistic. They are putting together road maps for how to safely get to the planet envisioned in the 2015 Paris Agreement, where temperatures hold at 1.5 degrees Celsius higher than before we started burning fossil fuels, this article from July states.

“Three decades is enough to do a lot of important things. In the next few years—if we get started on them—they will pay dividends in the coming decades,” says Chan, the lead author of the chapter on achieving a sustainable future in a recent UN report that predicted the possible extinction of a million species.

Making these changes won’t mean years of being poor, cold and hungry before things get comfortable again, the scientists insist. They say that if we start acting seriously NOW, we stand a decent chance of transforming society without huge disruption. 

No doubt, it will take a massive switch in society’s energy use. But without us noticing, that’s already happening. Not fast enough, maybe, but it is. Solar panels and offshore wind power plummet in price.  Iceland and Paraguay have stripped the carbon from their grids, according to a new energy outlook report from Bloomberg. Europe is on track to be 90 per cent carbon-free by 2040. And Ottawa says that Canada is already at 81 per cent, thanks to hydro, nuclear, wind and solar. 

Decarbonizing the whole economy is within grasp. We can do this.
