The Background in Dissertation Introduction

This initial part of your dissertation introduction should situate your area of research in context using pertinent sources with direct and indirect referencing approach.

The Research Focus in Dissertation Introduction

It simple describes the subject matter and purpose of your research.

Overall Aim & Individual Research Objectives

This is the core ingredient of your dissertation introduction where you clarify your research focus by identifying the aim and objectives of your research essential for the completion of your main aim. Both overall aim and objectives can be well transformed into research questions. While enumerating these core essentials, you are also supposed to provide an over view of the research methods that you are going to use in terms of task planning within an estimated time.

Value of Research Subsection

This is just a paragraph where you tell why you think your research is worth doing (think in terms of the beneficiaries of your work).

An Outline Structure

Finally, create an outline structure, which you complete accumulatively as your progress through your dissertation. The outline structure highlights the main sub-sections contained in each of your chapters.
