1.0  Introduction

This document summarises the requirements of the PMP concerning the general contents and layout of dissertations. Remember that the quality of the dissertation often is the component we attach most weight to in the marking scheme. Criteria that examiners use can be seen in the Dissertation Assessment Guidelines. This means that to do our practical work creditably, you must be able to describe what you have done cogently, in written form.

There are four main aspects to the dissertation:

• layout and formatting;
• writing style including grammar, spelling, sentence structure, clarity, appropriate use of terms and terminology;
• organisation and structure of the dissertation;
• appropriateness and scope of content including 本留学生论文由留学生论文网www.51lunwen.org提供quality of argumentation.

This document contains all you need to know about layout and formatting. The best advice is to adopt the required layout standards early on in your writing, so that there is no major editing to be done later. Some advice is given here, too, on writing style.

There should be no excuse for spelling mistakes; spelling checkers take care of most spelling errors and proof-reading is essential to ensure you have corrected those that were missed. Grammar checking is also a feature of word processing. The main point is that these surface-level aspects of presentation are fairly readily dealt with by making use of writing tools.
