Your Human Geography Dissertation
Designing, Doing, Delivering
- Kimberley Peters - Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity at University of Oldenburg
An undergraduate dissertation is your opportunity to engage with geographical research, first-hand. But completing a student project can be a stressful and complex process. Your Human Geography Dissertation breaks the task down into three helpful stages:
- Designing: Deciding on your approach, your topic and your research question, and ensuring your project is feasible
- Doing: Situating your research and selecting the best methods for your dissertation project
- Delivering: Dealing with data and writing up your findings
With information and task boxes, soundbites offering student insight and guidance, and links to online materials, this book offers a complete and accessible overview of the key skills needed to prepare, research, and write a successful human geography dissertation.
Supplements
This volume is a well-written and well-organised volume to recommend to both my dissertation research students and to use on my section (human geography research methods) of our research methods in geography module. I will be using it as a recommended reading.
With this book as their guide your students will be able to achieve what it promises: design, do and deliver.
