Set a definite period of time each day which you will devote to your thesis. Arrange regular meetings with your adviser at least once a week. The bibliography, thesis outline, and the first and second drafts will normally be evaluated and returned to the student by the thesis supervisor within one week. The thesis supervisor will read the final draft and indicate corrections which must be made before the polished final thesis is submitted. The evaluation of how well these course requirements were met will be considered by the Department Faculty in determining the final grade for the course.
Students sometimes experience difficulty in their first independent learning experience.
You will have to take more initiative in organizing your schedule to complete the work on your thesis. The College's reference librarians can be of enormous assistance to you in assisting you to identify and locate relevant materials whether in printed or digital format. The habit of intellectual honesty is essential to both intellectual and moral growth. Effective evaluation of student work and helpful instruction can take place only in an environment where intellectual honesty is respected. Plagiarism is a violation of intellectual honesty.
