학위논문 작성법(체제, English)

Introduction

The master’s or doctoral thesis is required for the conferral of a graduate degree at Yonsei University. The manuscript is expected to be an original contribution to the student’s field of research and the result of sustained scholarship and research. The thesis will be held in the Yonsei University Library and made available to the public (on the Web as well as in printed forms). This booklet provides directions about the format of the thesis in order to help students write their master’s or doctoral theses in English at Yonsei University.

Students can choose, in consultation with their thesis supervisor, to write their theses in English. Once this decision has been made, students should follow the guidelines in this booklet, which provides the standard format requirements for theses in all departments. For field-specific differences in bibliography, citations, etc., students must consult with their thesis supervisor and refer to the style manuals given in the “References” section below. Note that this booklet supplements the Academic Regulations of Graduate School, 2014(대학원 학칙 및 내규, 2014; in Korean), and that the overall requirements of Graduate School for all theses and graduation requirements must be met. Further detailed information on researching, writing, and formatting of the thesis is available in the Guidelines for Writing Thesis at Graduate School, 2001(논문 작성법, 2011; in Korean).

Requirements

1. Writing Thesis in English The language of the master’s or doctoral thesis at Yonsei University is generally Korean, but theses written in English are also encouraged. Students must consult with their thesis supervisor and obtain an advance approval for the thesis written in a language other than Korean, including English. Theses written in languages other than Korean or English are also permissible upon approval by the thesis supervisor if the foreign language is appropriate for the subject of the thesis.

2. Eligibility for Submission of Thesis Students must meet certain conditions before they are eligible to submit theses. All students must have passed their qualifying examinations and have been under the guidance of a thesis supervisor for at least one semester for a master’s student, or for at least two semesters for a doctoral or combined master’s doctoral student. All students must finish their degree programs within a specified period four years for a master’s student, seven years for a doctoral student, and eight years for a combined master’s doctoral student. However, in cases when a student has been on leave or has other permissible reasons, the Dean of the Graduate School can grant the student up to two more years to complete the degree program.

3. Scope and Breadth of Thesis The thesis must be an original contribution to the student’s field of scholarship. The master’s thesis must demonstrate a strong fundamental understanding of the student’s field of research, focus on a subject of scholarly relevance, and be clearly written and well organized. A doctoral dissertation must demonstrate a capacity for original research, present a clear argument that demonstrates how the student’s research revises or expands existing boundaries of knowledge or technology. Both the master’s and doctoral theses should reflect not only mastery of research techniques but also an ability to select an important problem for investigation and to execute it competently. As long as the length of the thesis is concerned there are no restrictions. Master’s theses are usually under 150 pages with 1.5- or double-spacing, and doctoral dissertations are usually under 300 pages with 1.5- or double-spacing.

4. Thesis Supervisor All students must select and be approved by a thesis supervisor (principal adviser) in their field of study before embarking on a thesis. The thesis supervisor must be a full-time faculty member at Yonsei University; professors, associate professors, and assistant professors with final degree in their field (usually a Ph.D.) are eligible. In order to ensure that the thesis supervisor will be able to finish supervising the thesis, the thesis supervisor must be a faculty member who has at least four semesters remaining for a master’s student or six semesters remaining for a doctoral student before retirement.

Submission of Thesis

1. Copies of Preliminary Manuscript In order to facilitate preliminary review of the thesis, master’s students must submit three (3) copies, and doctoral students five (5) copies of their manuscript to their thesis committee. The final thesis must be submitted to the Graduate School office after obtaining an approval from the thesis supervisor and committee members.

2. Thesis Committee The thesis committee which reviews and approves master’s and doctoral theses is appointed by the Dean of the Graduate School. Upon the request from the department chair, the Dean of the Graduate School appoints thesis committee members to review the thesis. Committee is composed of three faculty members for a master’s thesis and five for a doctoral dissertation, and up to one (master’s) or two (doctoral) of theses committee members can be from outside of the University. The thesis supervisor automatically becomes a committee member; the Dean of the Graduate School follows the recommendation of the department chair in appointing a Chair of the thesis committee. Any faculty member is eligible to be thesis supervisor (see “The Thesis Supervisor” above) as well as to serve on the thesis committee.

3. Preliminary Review of Thesis The master’s and doctoral thesis must be carefully reviewed by all the members of the thesis committee, and approved by that committee before final submission.

A. Master’s theses must be carefully reviewed by members of the thesis committee. The degree candidate must give a public presentation of the thesis to the members of the thesis committee and his/her department, and must answer questions posed by thesis committee members and other audiences at the presentation. The thesis committee chair then submits the results of the evaluation of the candidate’s performance to the Dean of the Graduate School after consultation with other committee members.

B. Doctoral dissertations must be carefully reviewed by members of the thesis committee. The degree candidate must give a public presentation of the dissertation to the members of the thesis committee and his / her department, and must answer questions posed by thesis committee members and other audiences at the presentation. The candidate must pass an official preliminary examination for the dissertation within the designated period determined by the Dean of the Graduate School. The thesis committee chair then submits the evaluation of the candidate’s performance to the Dean of the Graduate School after consultation with other committee members.

4. Final Manuscript and Review The final manuscript of the master’s and doctoral thesis must be faithfully revised/supplemented, under the direction of the thesis supervisor, according to the recommendations and suggestions made by the thesis committee. The final manuscript must follow the format specified below in “Format of Thesis,” and six (6) copies must be submitted to the Graduate School office by the specified deadline. This manuscript will then be subject to final review and approval by the thesis committee and by the Dean of the Graduate School. If needed, the thesis committee can request the candidate to submit materials, sources, and other references used in the thesis. The thesis committee must make the final approval that the thesis is a significant contribution to knowledge and an acceptable piece of scholarly writing. In the process of evaluating the manuscript, the master’s thesis must get at least 80 points (out of a maximum of 100) from at least two out of three thesis committee members, and the doctoral dissertation must get at least 80 points (out of a maximum of 100) from at least four out of five thesis committee members. If a candidate fails, a revised and improved thesis can be resubmitted one semester later.

이 클래스는 Overleaf 에서 테스트가 완료되었습니다. 현재 Overleaf Template 으로 등록하기 위한 절차를 밟고 있습니다. 컴파일 결과물은 여기( Sample PDF )에서 확인해주세요.

일부 예시 페이지는 다음과 같습니다.

직접 컴파일 하실경우 아래 문구를 참조하시기 바랍니다.

직접 컴파일 하실 경우 TeXLive 2013 이후 버전에서 동작하며 이전 버전에서는 koTeX 를 따로 설치해야할 수 있습니다. 유닉스 환경에서는 make , 윈도우에서는 make.bat 을 실행시키면 자동으로 컴파일이 되어 thesis.pdf 파일이 생성됩니다. 중간에 뭔가 꼬여 처음부터 컴파일을 해야 할 일이 있다면, 유닉스 환경에서는 make clean , 윈도에어서는 clean.bat 을 이용해서 초기화 할 수 있습니다. 이 때 사용자가 작성한 파일들은 날아가지 않으나 항상 조심하는게 좋으니 백업을 강력하게 권장합니다.

Thesis Format – Templates and Samples

Table of contents.

Thesis Format

Thesis format refers to the structure and layout of a research thesis or dissertation. It typically includes several chapters, each of which focuses on a particular aspect of the research topic .

The exact format of a thesis can vary depending on the academic discipline and the institution, but some common elements include:

Introduction

Literature review, methodology.

The title page is the first page of a thesis that provides essential information about the document, such as the title, author’s name, degree program, university, and the date of submission. It is considered as an important component of a thesis as it gives the reader an initial impression of the document’s content and quality.

The typical contents of a title page in a thesis include:

• The title of the thesis: It should be concise, informative, and accurately represent the main topic of the research.
• Author’s name: This should be written in full and should be the same as it appears on official university records.
• Degree program and department: This should specify the type of degree (e.g., Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Doctoral) and the field of study (e.g., Computer Science, Psychology, etc.).
• University: The name of the university where the thesis is being submitted.
• Date of submission : The month and year of submission of the thesis.
• Other details that can be included on the title page include the name of the advisor, the name of the committee members, and any acknowledgments.

In terms of formatting, the title page should be centered horizontally and vertically on the page, with a consistent font size and style. The page margin for the title page should be at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) on all sides. Additionally, it is common practice to include the university logo or crest on the title page, and this should be placed appropriately.

Title of the Thesis in Title Case by Author’s Full Name in Title Case

A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Department Name at the University Name

Month Year of Submission

An abstract is a brief summary of a thesis or research paper that provides an overview of the main points, methodology, and findings of the study. It is typically placed at the beginning of the document, after the title page and before the introduction.

The purpose of an abstract is to provide readers with a quick and concise overview of the research paper or thesis. It should be written in a clear and concise language, and should not contain any jargon or technical terms that are not easily understood by the general public.

Here’s an example of an abstract for a thesis:

Title: The Impact of Social Media on Mental Health among Adolescents

This study examines the impact of social media on mental health among adolescents. The research utilized a survey methodology and collected data from a sample of 500 adolescents aged between 13 and 18 years. The findings reveal that social media has a significant impact on mental health among adolescents, with frequent use of social media associated with higher levels of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. The study concludes that there is a need for increased awareness and education on the risks associated with excessive use of social media, and recommends strategies for promoting healthy social media habits among adolescents.

In this example, the abstract provides a concise summary of the thesis by highlighting the main points, methodology, and findings of the study. It also provides a clear indication of the significance of the study and its implications for future research and practice.

A table of contents is an essential part of a thesis as it provides the reader with an overview of the entire document’s structure and organization.

Here’s an example of how a table of contents might look in a thesis:

APPENDICES …………………………………………………………….26

As you can see, the table of contents is organized by chapters and sections. Each chapter and section is listed with its corresponding page number, making it easy for the reader to navigate the thesis.

The introduction is a critical part of a thesis as it provides an overview of the research problem, sets the context for the study, and outlines the research objectives and questions. The introduction is typically the first chapter of a thesis and serves as a roadmap for the reader.

Here’s an example of how an introduction in a thesis might look:

Introduction:

The prevalence of obesity has increased rapidly in recent decades, with more than one-third of adults in the United States being classified as obese. Obesity is associated with numerous adverse health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. Despite significant efforts to address this issue, the rates of obesity continue to rise. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between lifestyle behaviors and obesity in young adults.

The study will be conducted using a mixed-methods approach, with both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods. The research objectives are to:

• Examine the relationship between lifestyle behaviors and obesity in young adults.
• Identify the key lifestyle factors that contribute to obesity in young adults.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of current interventions aimed at preventing and reducing obesity in young adults.

The research questions that will guide this study are:

• What is the relationship between lifestyle behaviors and obesity in young adults?
• Which lifestyle factors are most strongly associated with obesity in young adults?
• How effective are current interventions aimed at preventing and reducing obesity in young adults?

By addressing these research questions, this study aims to contribute to the understanding of the factors that contribute to obesity in young adults and to inform the development of effective interventions to prevent and reduce obesity in this population.

A literature review is a critical analysis and evaluation of existing literature on a specific topic or research question. It is an essential part of any thesis, as it provides a comprehensive overview of the existing research on the topic and helps to establish the theoretical framework for the study. The literature review allows the researcher to identify gaps in the current research, highlight areas that need further exploration, and demonstrate the importance of their research question.

April 9, 2023:

A search on Google Scholar for “Effectiveness of Online Learning during the COVID-19 Pandemic” yielded 1,540 results. Upon reviewing the first few pages of results, it is evident that there is a significant amount of literature on the topic. A majority of the studies focus on the experiences and perspectives of students and educators during the transition to online learning due to the pandemic.

One recent study published in the Journal of Educational Technology & Society (Liu et al., 2023) found that students who were already familiar with online learning tools and platforms had an easier time adapting to online learning than those who were not. However, the study also found that students who were not familiar with online learning tools were able to adapt with proper support from their teachers and institutions.

Another study published in Computers & Education (Tang et al., 2023) compared the academic performance of students in online and traditional classroom settings during the pandemic. The study found that while there were no significant differences in the grades of students in the two settings, students in online classes reported higher levels of stress and lower levels of satisfaction with their learning experience.

Methodology in a thesis refers to the overall approach and systematic process that a researcher follows to collect and analyze data in order to answer their research question(s) or achieve their research objectives. It includes the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, data analysis procedures, and any other relevant procedures that the researcher uses to conduct their research.

For example, let’s consider a thesis on the impact of social media on mental health among teenagers. The methodology for this thesis might involve the following steps:

Research Design:

The researcher may choose to conduct a quantitative study using a survey questionnaire to collect data on social media usage and mental health among teenagers. Alternatively, they may conduct a qualitative study using focus group discussions or interviews to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences and perspectives of teenagers regarding social media and mental health.

Sampling Techniques:

The researcher may use random sampling to select a representative sample of teenagers from a specific geographic location or demographic group, or they may use purposive sampling to select participants who meet specific criteria such as age, gender, or mental health status.

Data Collection Methods:

The researcher may use an online survey tool to collect data on social media usage and mental health, or they may conduct face-to-face interviews or focus group discussions to gather qualitative data. They may also use existing data sources such as medical records or social media posts.

Data Analysis Procedures:

The researcher may use statistical analysis techniques such as regression analysis to examine the relationship between social media usage and mental health, or they may use thematic analysis to identify key themes and patterns in the qualitative data.

Ethical Considerations: The researcher must ensure that their research is conducted in an ethical manner, which may involve obtaining informed consent from participants, protecting their confidentiality, and ensuring that their rights and welfare are respected.

In a thesis, the “Results” section typically presents the findings of the research conducted by the author. This section typically includes both quantitative and qualitative data, such as statistical analyses, tables, figures, and other relevant data.

Here are some examples of how the “Results” section of a thesis might look:

Example 1: A quantitative study on the effects of exercise on cardiovascular health

In this study, the author conducts a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of exercise on cardiovascular health in a group of sedentary adults. The “Results” section might include tables showing the changes in blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other relevant indicators in the exercise and control groups over the course of the study. The section might also include statistical analyses, such as t-tests or ANOVA, to demonstrate the significance of the results.

Example 2: A qualitative study on the experiences of immigrant families in a new country

In this study, the author conducts in-depth interviews with immigrant families to explore their experiences of adapting to a new country. The “Results” section might include quotes from the interviews that illustrate the participants’ experiences, as well as a thematic analysis that identifies common themes and patterns in the data. The section might also include a discussion of the implications of the findings for policy and practice.

A thesis discussion section is an opportunity for the author to present their interpretation and analysis of the research results. In this section, the author can provide their opinion on the findings, compare them with other literature, and suggest future research directions.

For example, let’s say the thesis topic is about the impact of social media on mental health. The author has conducted a survey among 500 individuals and has found that there is a significant correlation between excessive social media use and poor mental health.

In the discussion section, the author can start by summarizing the main findings and stating their interpretation of the results. For instance, the author may argue that excessive social media use is likely to cause mental health problems due to the pressure of constantly comparing oneself to others, fear of missing out, and cyberbullying.

Next, the author can compare their results with other studies and point out similarities and differences. They can also identify any limitations in their research design and suggest future directions for research.

For example, the author may point out that their study only measured social media use and mental health at one point in time, and it is unclear whether one caused the other or whether there are other confounding factors. Therefore, they may suggest longitudinal studies that follow individuals over time to better understand the causal relationship.

Writing a conclusion for a thesis is an essential part of the overall writing process. The conclusion should summarize the main points of the thesis and provide a sense of closure to the reader. It is also an opportunity to reflect on the research process and offer suggestions for further study.

Here is an example of a conclusion for a thesis:

After an extensive analysis of the data collected, it is evident that the implementation of a new curriculum has had a significant impact on student achievement. The findings suggest that the new curriculum has improved student performance in all subject areas, and this improvement is particularly notable in math and science. The results of this study provide empirical evidence to support the notion that curriculum reform can positively impact student learning outcomes.

In addition to the positive results, this study has also identified areas for future research. One limitation of the current study is that it only examines the short-term effects of the new curriculum. Future studies should explore the long-term effects of the new curriculum on student performance, as well as investigate the impact of the curriculum on students with different learning styles and abilities.

Overall, the findings of this study have important implications for educators and policymakers who are interested in improving student outcomes. The results of this study suggest that the implementation of a new curriculum can have a positive impact on student achievement, and it is recommended that schools and districts consider curriculum reform as a means of improving student learning outcomes.

References in a thesis typically follow a specific format depending on the citation style required by your academic institution or publisher.

Below are some examples of different citation styles and how to reference different types of sources in your thesis:

An appendix in a thesis is a section that contains additional information that is not included in the main body of the document but is still relevant to the topic being discussed. It can include figures, tables, graphs, data sets, sample questionnaires, or any other supplementary material that supports your thesis.

Here is an example of how you can format appendices in your thesis:

• Title page: The appendix should have a separate title page that lists the title, author’s name, the date, and the document type (i.e., thesis or dissertation). The title page should be numbered as the first page of the appendix section.
• Table of contents: If you have more than one appendix, you should include a separate table of contents that lists each appendix and its page number. The table of contents should come after the title page.
• Appendix sections: Each appendix should have its own section with a clear and concise title that describes the contents of the appendix. Each section should be numbered with Arabic numerals (e.g., Appendix 1, Appendix 2, etc.). The sections should be listed in the table of contents.
• Formatting: The formatting of the appendices should be consistent with the rest of the thesis. This includes font size, font style, line spacing, and margins.
• Example: Here is an example of what an appendix might look like in a thesis on the topic of climate change:

Appendix 1: Data Sources

This appendix includes a list of the primary data sources used in this thesis, including their URLs and a brief description of the data they provide.

Appendix 2: Survey Questionnaire

This appendix includes the survey questionnaire used to collect data from participants in the study.

Appendix 3: Additional Figures

This appendix includes additional figures that were not included in the main body of the thesis due to space limitations. These figures provide additional support for the findings presented in the thesis.

Thesis and Dissertation Formatting Hybrid Workshop: Regular Session

June 8, 2024 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm, about this event.

This combined workshop (registrants can attend in person or online) covers the submission process for format review and demonstrates how to use the automated templates to format MSU theses and dissertations to the requirements set forth in the Standards for Preparing Theses and Dissertations: 8th edition. These templates were designed to help an author organize and format their document with minimal effort so that their focus can be on the content of their document. Those who have already started writing or have already defended are welcome to bring their current documents (either on flash drive or email attachment) to start the process of placing their content into the template
