- Organization
- The objectives:
- Determine if your paper meets its goal
- Discover places to expand on your evidence or analysis
- See where readers might be tripped up by your organization or structure
What are aims & objectives? - What are aims & objectives?
- If you build a house without foundations, it’s pretty obvious what will happen. It’ll
- collapse. Your thesis is the same; fail to build the foundations and your thesis just won’t
- work.
- Your aims and objectives are those foundations. That’s why we’ve put them right at the
- top of our PhD Writing Template.
- If you write your aims and objectives clearly then you’ll make your reader’s life easier.
- A lot of students fail to clearly articulate their aims and objectives because they aren’t
- sure themselves what they actually are.
- Picture this: if there’s one thing that every PhD student hates it’s being asked by a
- stranger what their research is on.
Your research aims are the answer to the question, ‘What are you doing?’ - Your research aims are the answer to the question, ‘What are you doing?’
- 1. You need to clearly describe what your intentions are and what you hope to achieve.
- These are your aims.
- 2. Your aims may be to test theory in a new empirical setting, derive new theory entirely,
- construct a new data-set, replicate an existing study, question existing orthodoxy, and so on.
- Whatever they are, clearly articulate them and do so early. Definitely include them in your
- introduction and, if you’re smart, you’ll write them in your abstract.
- 3. Be very explicit. In the opening paragraphs, say, in simple terms, ‘the aim of this
4. Think of your aims then as a statement of intent. They are a promise to the - 4. Think of your aims then as a statement of intent. They are a promise to the
- reader that you are going to do something. You use the next two hundred pages or so to follow
- through on that promise. If you don’t make the promise, the reader won’t understand your
- follow-through. Simple as that.
- Because they serve as the starting point of the study, there needs to be a flow from your
- aims through your objectives (more on this below) to your research questions and contribution
- and then into the study itself. If you have completed your research and found that you answered
- a different question (not that uncommon), make sure your original aims are still valid. If they
- aren’t, refine them.
- If you struggle to explain in simple terms what your research is about and why it matters,
- you may need to refine your aims and objectives to make them more concise.
- How to create a reverse outline
- 1. Start with a complete draft to have a fuller picture of the plan you carried out. You can use a
- partial draft to review the organization of the paragraphs you have written so far.
- 2. Construct the outline by listing the main idea of each paragraph in your draft in a blank
- document. If a paragraph's topic sentence provides a succinct version of the paragraph's argument,
- you can paste that sentence into the outline as a summary for that paragraph. Otherwise, write
- a one-sentence summary to express the main point of the paragraph.
- 3. Number your list for ease of reference.
- Use your reverse outline to answer questions
