Dissertation Consulting | Editorial Division

Introduction

Now that your research topic is approved, diving into your dissertation is the next step. At this phase, researchers tend to expand on their initial prospectus or concept paper into a full introduction chapter, while responding to feedback.

Doctoral students often experience challenges when writing this foundational chapter. Dee’tail Consulting editors work with students to improve their dissertation’s introductory chapter in an effort to move forward by developing thorough and precise writing necessary to conduct the study.


Editor’s Role

  • For clients who have not reached the near-completion phase, Dee’tail Consulting offers assistance by reviewing former literature you identify, creating structure for the chapter, and transposing the outline into a complete draft.
  • Your editor reviews your draft and university guidelines and requirements, which allows us to customize our support to assist you. Becoming familiar with your university’s expectations enables us to assist you in building a clear synopsis of the remaining chapters.
  • Once you find contemporary and pertinent research to support the need for your study, our editors assist you by reviewing your comprehensive literature search. When completed successfully, you should move onward to draft your Literature Review.
  • Next, we review your Methodology section to ensure the research questions and sample plan sustain alignment with the gap in research and confirm your satisfaction with the qualitative analysis. Additionally, we review for proper linkage between your proposed methodology and research questions.
  • For your introduction, our editors confirm the foundational elements: problem statement, purpose statement, research questions, and methodology, to ensure they are presented properly and follow guidelines and requirements per your university’s demands.
