How to write a master thesis


Listen Later

During my time at Hochschule Heilbronn, one of the requirements for graduation was to do a Master Thesis.

The thesis period for bachelor or master students would become for some a stressful time.

As a difference from a regular studying semester, the thesis time is basically a work between the student and himself or herself.

As a student, one might have the thesis supervisors, but they are merely as support.

There is a thin guidance, since it is the student work to to figure it out what topic to write about the master thesis, how to write a master thesis, where to get the references, which methodological approach to use, where is the best spot to write the thesis and so on.

And of course, there might be lots of students where they might not have any clue at the beginning.

Questions and doubts keep rising.

Probably all master students pass this phase.

In my case, I already knew I was interested in a topic related to entrepreneurship.

But entrepreneurship itself, just that term is too generic, and for a master thesis you should create a fancy title.

You can start checking out many thesis, and find out very long titles that would also try to be very specific and go to the point of what you are going to write about.

And actually, this is recommended because there is already plenty information on internet, books and journals where you can get the information that you are looking for, so it would be better to target just what you are looking for.

So in my case, to find out a supervisor, I got to know that one of my professors was already working on entrepreneurship.

In one talk with her, she gave me as a tip to do a bit pre-research on the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor.

As I got to know the work of that organization, it helped me out to narrow my topic on the different pillars that surround entrepreneurship, and I choose out the least developed pillar for my country, Mexico.

Therefore I came out with the fancy name: Fostering the Cultural Support of the Mexican Entrepreneurship Ecosystem.
