Uniform requirements for the format of graduate dissertations

Dissertations are the main manifestations of graduate students' achievements in scientific research, which show the new inventions, theories or opinions obtained by the authors in their research work, are the important basis for graduate students to apply for master's or doctoral degrees, and are also important documents in the field of scientific research and valuable wealth of society.

In order to improve the writing quality of graduate dissertations and make them more standardized and standardized in content and format, the following provisions are made in accordance with the national standard "Rules for Writing Dissertations":

1. Thesis content requirements

Postgraduate dissertations should be written in Chinese, and the number of words for master dissertations is generally 4,-5,, and that for master dissertations is generally 2,-5,; The number of words for doctoral dissertations is generally 8, ~ 1, (see other regulations for the number of words for dissertations of medical graduates). The content of the dissertation should be complete and accurate, with distinct levels, reliable data, concise text, thorough explanation, rigorous reasoning and correct argument; Simplified Chinese characters and legal units of measurement officially promulgated and implemented by the state should be adopted. The terms, symbols and codes used in this paper must be unified and conform to the requirements of standardization. If new technical terms, abbreviations and idioms are used in the article, they should be noted. New foreign technical terms and abbreviations must be indicated in parentheses after the translation. The illustrations and photos of the dissertation must be copied or microfilmed. The page number of the paper should be from? Introduction? Several cases (including introduction, text, references, appendices, acknowledgements, etc.) were coded in Arabic numerals; The abstract page, the table of contents page, the list of illustrations and schedules, the descriptions of symbols and abbreviations, etc., are separately coded with Arabic numerals.

The content of a paper should generally consist of fifteen main parts, which are as follows: 1. Cover (including title page); 2. Title page; 3. Original statement of the paper; 4. Power of attorney for the use of paper copyright; 5. List of thesis defense committees and defense resolutions; 6. Chinese abstract; 7. English abstract; 8. Contents; 9. Symbol description; 1. The text of the paper; 11. References; 12. Notes; 13. Appendix; 14. thanks; 15. Catalogue of academic papers published during the degree study. The specific requirements of each part are as follows:

1. Cover (including the title page)

Use the unified cover issued by the graduate school, and fill in the title of the paper (no more than 2 words), the name of the author, the name of the instructor, the discipline (specialty), the engineering field (filled in by the master of engineering), the date of defense (or the date of submission of the paper) and other contents on the cover page. The above contents should also be clearly filled in on the title page, and the graduate student number should be added. Professional degree graduates should indicate the name of the professional degree they are applying for.

The paper title should avoid using abbreviations, acronyms, characters, codes and formulas that are not commonly used. The words used in the title must consider the secondary documents that are helpful to the selection of keywords and the compilation of titles and abstracts, and can provide specific practical information for retrieval. The topics that appear in the dissertation should be exactly the same. If the dissertation is funded by a fund, the fund should be noted at the bottom of the topic? Footer? Location.

2. Title page

The title page should be placed in the second cover, which is the basis for recording the dissertation. In addition to all the contents on the cover, the title page should also include keywords, funded projects, research direction, degree level (doctor or master) applied for, training units and so on.

3. Original statement of the thesis

The full text of the statement can be downloaded from the Internet and will take effect after being signed by the author of the dissertation.

4. power of attorney for the use of thesis copyright

6. Chinese abstract (including keywords)

Chinese abstract should state the contents of the dissertation briefly and clearly without comments and comments. It contains the basic information in the thesis, reflects the core idea of scientific research, and is independent and self-contained, that is, you can get the necessary information without reading the full text of the thesis. There are data and conclusions in the abstract, which is a complete essay and can be used independently and quoted. The content should generally explain the purpose and significance, research methods, experimental methods, research results, results and final conclusions of this scientific research work, with emphasis on the results and conclusions, and attention should be paid to highlighting the innovative achievements and new insights in the dissertation. The content should contain the main information equivalent to reports and papers, so that readers can determine whether it is necessary to read the full text, and it can also be used by secondary documents (abstracts, etc.). Generally speaking, Chinese abstracts should not exceed 5 words (master's thesis) or 8 words (doctoral thesis). In case of special needs, the number of words can be slightly more.

7. English abstract (including key words)

The content of English abstract (including the title of the paper) should basically correspond to the Chinese abstract, conform to English grammar, and be fluent in sentences and words. The number of words in an English abstract is calculated by content words, which should not exceed 3 (master's thesis) or 5 (doctoral thesis) in general, but can be slightly more in case of special needs.

1. Paper body

The paper body is the main body and the core part of the dissertation, occupying the main space, and generally consists of five parts: title, narrative, figure, table and formula. The writing forms can vary according to the nature of scientific research projects, and generally include investigation objects, experimental and observation methods, instruments and equipment, raw materials, experimental and observation results, calculation methods and programming principles, data and materials, processed charts, formed arguments and derived conclusions, etc.

Because of the great differences in subjects, topics, research methods, work processes and expression methods of results involved in the research work, it is impossible to make uniform provisions on the contents of the text. However, it must be realistic, objective and true, accurate and complete, logical, clear-cut, concise and readable.

11. References

References are collections of documents with specific sources cited in the text, which should be listed in the order in which they appear, either at the end of each chapter or at the end of the text. In accordance with the provisions of GB 7714 "Rules for the Description of References".

when quoting other people's scientific research achievements, special attention should be paid to explaining them at the quotation place to avoid plagiarism.

12. Notes

Notes can be recorded as footnotes at the bottom of the page, but never in the text.

13. Appendix

Appendix is a supplementary item as the main body of the paper, and it is not necessary. The contents of the appendix are as follows:

(1) For the completeness of the whole paper material, it is harmful to the organization and logic of the arrangement. This material includes more detailed information than the main text, a more in-depth description of research methods and technologies, a bibliography of recommended references that can be read, and supplementary information that is useful for understanding the main content.

(2) materials that are too large or taken from replicas and are not easy to be incorporated into the text.

(3) Rare and precious materials that are not easy to compile in the text.
