CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background
Brief background of the topic should be discussed under the background section. It should
be done in the form of brief literature review of related literatures(what has been researched
so far, gaps), which is essential to build statement of the problem, research question, and
research objectives in the later part of introduction chapter [1].
1.2. Statement of the problem
This section must indicate what the problem is, and why and how it is a problem. Similarly,
necessity to conduct the research should be discussed. It should be supported by data or
evidences. This section should be well connected with background section and as brief as
possible.
1.3. Research questions
Based on the statement of the problem research question should be formulated. Research
questions should clearly state what type of answers the research is looking for.
1.4. Research objectives
This section should clearly mention the overall and specific goal of the research. Usually,
objective is presented as general objective and specific objectives. The general objective of
thesis research should be only one and should be in line with the title. To meet the general
objective, several specific objectives could be set. Specific objectives should be in line with
research questions and are more or less equal to numbers of research questions.
1.5. Significance of the study
The importance of the proposed topic should be stated in this section, in terms of potential
beneficiaries and the way they will be benefitted. The section should focus on justifying the
topic of the proposed study.
1.6. Limitations of the study
The limitation and scope of the proposed topic should be clearly mentioned.
