  • A strange in-between state of matter is finally observed
    When materials become just one atom thick, melting no longer follows the familiar rules. Instead of jumping straight from solid to liquid, an unusual in-between state emerges, where atomic positions loosen like a liquid but still keep some solid-like order. Scientists at the University of Vienna have now captured this elusive “hexatic” phase in real […]
  • New catalyst makes plastic upcycling 10x more efficient than platinum
    Scientists are finding new ways to replace expensive, scarce platinum catalysts with something far more abundant: tungsten carbide. By carefully controlling how tungsten carbide’s atoms are arranged at extremely high temperatures, researchers discovered a specific form that can rival platinum in key chemical reactions, including turning carbon dioxide into useful fuels and chemicals. Even more […]
  • Engineers just created a “phonon laser” that could shrink your next smartphone
    Engineers have created a device that generates incredibly tiny, earthquake-like vibrations on a microchip—and it could transform future electronics. Using a new kind of “phonon laser,” the team can produce ultra-fast surface waves that already play a hidden role in smartphones, GPS systems, and wireless tech. Unlike today’s bulky setups, this single-chip device could deliver […]
  • An old jeweler’s trick could change nuclear timekeeping
    A team of physicists has discovered a surprisingly simple way to build nuclear clocks using tiny amounts of rare thorium. By electroplating thorium onto steel, they achieved the same results as years of work with delicate crystals — but far more efficiently. These clocks could be vastly more precise than current atomic clocks and work […]
  • Critical minerals are hiding in plain sight in U.S. Mines
    Researchers found that U.S. metal mines already contain large amounts of critical minerals that are mostly going unused. Recovering even a small fraction of these byproducts could sharply reduce dependence on imports for materials essential to clean energy and advanced technology. In many cases, the value of these recovered minerals could exceed the value of […]
  • Miracle material’s hidden quantum power could transform future electronics
    Researchers have directly observed Floquet effects in graphene for the first time, settling a long-running scientific debate. Their ultrafast light-based technique demonstrates that graphene’s electronic properties can be tuned almost instantaneously. This paves the way for custom-engineered quantum materials and new approaches in electronics and sensing.

Dissertation Conclusion | Tips and Example

by Florius

This article is part of an educational series on dissertation writing, which aims to provide guidance on how to write an Conclusion chapter. Typically, the Conclusion chapter follows the Results and Discussion sections By following these guidelines, students and researchers can ensure that this chapter is well-structured and informative.

The conclusion is an essential part of your dissertation, serving as a concise and conclusive summary of your research work. Unlike articles and shorter reports that may combine discussion and conclusion, your dissertation should have a separate chapter dedicated exclusively to the conclusion. It plays an essential role in providing clear and concise insights into your most significant findings and the answer to your hypothesis or research question.

1. Conclusion vs. Discussion

Both the Discussion and Conclusion chapters likely include key findings from your research, though the latter takes a broader perspective by considering the overall research outcomes and their responses to your guiding research questions. In contrast, the Discussion chapter tends to provide more detailed analysis and explanation of each individual finding.

Secondly, your Conclusion chapter should not introduce any new information, such as data, findings, arguments or interpretations.
