Thesis_11_ A philosophical approach to your graduate thesis topic
Monday, September 29th, 2008I think I figured out my philosophical approach to formulating my thesis argument. As long as I objectify the subjective and individualize the objective my thesis topic will be strong; but more importantly, it will keep the audience’s interest and mine as well.
If my topic starts from a personal perspective I have to try to infuse some objectivity in the mixture. On the other hand, if it starts from an non personal angle, I have to also humanize it a bit.
As long as the graduate student keeps this delicate balance all will be fine in the thesis formulation and writing processes.
