ENG 598A - Thesis I

2
Students will create a research proposal and outline intended to meet the requirements for ENG 598B (Thesis II). The student will then complete initial drafts of the “Abstract,” “Review of Literature,” “Introduction,” and “Methodology” sections for that research project using either the MLA (Modern Language Association) or APA (American Psychological Association) manuals for reference citations. While enrolled in ENG 598A (Thesis I) or prior, the student consults with the Program Chair to approve a thesis advisor.  The student then identifies a topic in an area of interest approved by the thesis advisor. The student and the thesis advisor consult with the Program Chair to appoint a committee of at least three persons (including the thesis advisor). The committee reviews and approves the proposal and research outline. However, no commitment is made that the proposal developed for this course can be applied toward meeting the requirements for ENG 598. Prerequisite(s): ENG 553 (Research Methods). Students writing a thesis with significant quantitative content should complete EITHER a course in Statistics at the undergraduate or graduate level OR a course including in-depth study of Quantitative Methods. Prerequisite(s): ENG 553
