Master Dissertation and the knowledge you must had before writing it

November 12th, 2007 Posted in Business, Chating, Learning, UK, e-Business

Hello,

I don’t choose my Dissertation topic yet and I have to wait until next month when our school will give us a list of topics to choose from.

The main problem I faced around is the problem of reading. yes, It’s reading. When I was doing my Bachelor I didn’t read a lot of books. Just read the slides for the any course and I can get around 80%. They don’t teach us how to write a good report or how we can use the library to search for information. They just want us to pass the exams and get our degree and that’s it.

You may hear a lot of talking about the Universities ranking and how our universities in the middle east weren’t on the first 500!!. When I read some articles that discuss why our universities weren’t on the first 500 I laugh. They are talking about the difference between the western countries and the eastern countries (That’s us). They say that in Arab countries we are focusing on teaching students rather than doing researches. And the ranking was not taking that into consideration! oh my god!! Do you want them to make standards for every university? or taking into consideration that our lecturers don’t really want to do any researches?

If the students like me. don’t get any course about how to write an Academic reports? how can that help us to improve our learning systems?

    you should note that their is a number of third world country’s universities made that list.
    well our universities aren’t the only blame, a number of students that enter aren’t interested. The universities aren’t independent, even politics affect them, some universities have financial oriented views, that degrades their standard-Standford is a private university, but nobody can say it isn’t good-.

    Research is an important factor, how do universities finance scholarships and labs and everything, they do research for industry and other purposes

    I Agree with the most of your reply.
