WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A
THESIS?
 A thesis reveals the focus of your ideas in
your paper and it is a general argument
that shows where you stand with respect to
a particular field of study.
 Brings out the authors view point about a
subject and gives your reader the main
idea behind what you are writing.
 Useful to the author’s audience when it
comes to understanding the purpose if your
research.
 A thesis paper must identify two fundamentals;
1. What your ideas are all about
2. What your actual ideas are.
A THESIS SHOULD NOT BE:
 Too broad. For instance, your thesis should
pinpoint particular insights with regard to your
topic. While writing your thesis, you will need to
be having a specific angle and this can only be
done when your paper is not too broad.
 Too narrow in the sense that it is pointing facts
only. For instance, your thesis should be
developed into a full writing in the sense that the
writer’s thoughts and insights can be fully
explored.
 An announcement. It would lack an angle to
give its readers and insight into the topic.
