A seven-part series of Construction Dissertation Guides that provides university students with an overview of the steps involved in researching and producing a dissertation, can be found on Designing Buildings Wiki, the public information platform for the IHBC’s Conservation Wiki service.
The guides cover the following sections:
Part 1: Choosing a subject and preparing a proposal
Part 2: Literature review
Part 3: Research strategy
Part 4: Questionnaires and interviews
Part 5: Analysis and presentation of the results
Part 6: Structuring and writing
Part 7: Formatting and printing
There are also some sample sections for a dissertation abstract, a dissertation introduction chapter and an example questionnaire.
If you are working on, or have completed, a construction-related dissertation then why not share it on Designing Buildings Wiki? You can post the abstract, introduction, conclusions, or any other section that you think best encapsulates your research as an article.
