AN ULTIMATE GUIDE FOR WRITING AND PUBLISHING A DISSERTATION

Are you thinking about publishing your dissertation? The publication of dissertations isn't frequently mentioned by teachers. However, if you've focused on a topic that is important to you (and especially if you get the distinction of a first), you should look into this possibility.

WHY SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO PUBLISH YOUR DISSERTATION?

A dissertation that is published by way of an article published in a journal of academics is a great way to enhance your resume, particularly in the event that you are looking to pursue a career in academia. If you've produced significant content from your studies, it could be of great assistance to others should you decide to publish it. The thesis supervisor will be able to guide you in deciding if the publication is suitable for your dissertation.

BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU CHOOSE

While having an article published in a journal is great for your resume, you should take care. The research you conducted could be the subject of a first. However, will your dissertation be something you will be proud of for the rest of your career? If you've made a statement that's controversial, which could cause a stir among people who disagree with you, it's probably not the type of opinion you would like to be able to share in the public realm. Imagine that five years from now, you're invited to a high-profile job interview. When applying for a job, are there any components of the dissertation that might jeopardise your chances of success? You should take this into consideration before submitting your work for publication.

PUBLICATION-APPEAL AND REVIEW

The process of submitting to journals of academic research can take a long time. Editorial and peer-reviewers might only be employees on a part-time basis. Certain publishers have journals in which the editors aren't academics from within. The publisher is responsible for only the production (tasks such as proofreading and the printing) and printing. The article will then be reviewed by other experts, and only if that goes well will it be included in the production process, which includes proofreading, typesetting, copy editing, design, and printing.

If your article isn't accepted by the journal that you sent it to, they will give you the opportunity to appeal. Make sure to use a calm tone and explain the reasons editors ought to reconsider their decision. Remember that the editor's decision to reject the article was not based on personal opinions.

DO THEY INTEND TO PURCHASE DISSERTATIONS?

Your dissertation submission may be motivated by vanity since few publications accept theses. However, you may still get compensated for your dissertation-turned-article. For further information, see the Authors Licensing and Collecting Society's website. It is possible to register the information of any articles published in a journal that has an ISSN number so that the journal collects copying costs for you.

EDITING YOUR DISSERTATION

A dissertation editing service may be required after your proposal has been approved. This will guarantee that the work you submit is of a high standard of quality.
