    Many students or experts put down their dissertation very well, but when they reach the last part i.e. writing and recommendations; they unknowingly make mistakes that hamper the whole dissertation. The final part of the dissertation must include valid recommendations with a meaningful conclusion. The pattern for writing any dissertation is given below:

    • Introduction
    • Thesis statement and methodology
    • Summary results
    • Discussion of summary results
    • <a href="https://www.courseworkwriter.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Coursework & Assignment Help | UK Writing Services | Coursework Writer</a>and conclusion
    Although students can mention their views on the conducted research and put-forth the facts or key findings in an understandable way, the recommendations and conclusion are always written in the thesis after the body of your research paper and then the bibliography page follows.
    As each part of your dissertation requires conclusion, it must carry its own peculiarities for the consideration. Ensure to throw light for the readers on every part or chapter of your dissertation touching upon different aspects and key findings that were identified or realized. The writer should understand that the conclusion is a mere compilation of the entire thesis, thus, it must be written and presented well and should intend to summarise each of the chapters.
