SCIENTIFIC PROBLEMS

Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2010, Vol 157, Issue 3

Abstract

This is the second article in the series of publications devoted to practical advice for those writing degree theses and dissertations. The article presents the significance of a research problem while developing a dissertation, paying special attention to its phrasing as well as dependencies between a research subject, the main problem and detailed problems. One has to bear in mind, however, that a research subject is not synonymous with a research problem or the title of a dissertation. A research subject should result from a PhD candidate’s exploratory efforts, which of course does not rule out support from a thesis supervisor. To appropriately phrase a research problem is essential, the reason being that it enables one to design a research procedure, select appropriate research methods and ensures the scientific nature of a thesis.
