The dissertation is finally done and submitted! I cannot tell you how happy I am, and also how relieved! The last three months of my life were basically invaded by this piece of work… Nevertheless, I’m quite satisfied with what I’ve done and I’m already anxious to know the results; however I’ll have to wait till July.
So, as you can see from the photo, the topic of my dissertation was
The research methods I chose were a survey and in-depth interviews. I also distributed the questionnaire link on various LinkedIn groups asking practitioners to participate and many of them wanted to know the final results. As I promised, I will post the survey findings as well as some of the interviews here, but only after the dissertation has been graded (I know, I can’t wait either).
To be honest, I was a little bit scared at the beginning of my research; I did have to work very hard and miss a few parties from time to time, but now after I have learned so much, I know it was absolutely worth it and I’m well prepared for my second BA dissertation next year – yes, second, that’s what Double Award students do, write 2 dissertations just to get their BA degree.
Are you also writing a dissertation now? What are your experiences with it? Or if you have submitted a dissertation a few years back, what did you learn?
