Guidelines for Writing Research Proposals and Dissertations/Theses

The Guidelines for Writing Research Proposals and Dissertations/Theses is a comprehensive resource developed by the Directorate of Graduate Training to support postgraduate students and supervisors at Kabale University. It provides a standardized framework for structuring research proposals, dissertations, and theses, ensuring consistency, originality, and academic rigor in postgraduate research outputs.

The document covers key areas such as:

• Proposal format for both Master’s and Doctoral students
• Preliminary pages and essential components of a research proposal
• Detailed structure of chapters including introduction, literature review, and methodology
• Dissertation/thesis writing and general formatting requirements
• Guidance on plagiarism, ethical considerations, and data quality control

By following these guidelines, students and supervisors can streamline the research writing process while upholding the highest standards of scholarship.
