How to Write Abstract?



An approach to writing a thesis abstract

Begin by identifying in a sentence the main purpose of the thesis.

Then write answers to each of these questions:

1.What is the problem or question that the work addresses?
2.Why is it important?
3.How was the investigation undertaken?
4.What was found and what does it mean?

You should find the answers to questions 1 and 2 in your Introduction; the answer to question 3 will be a summary of your Methods; and the answer to question 4 will summarise your Results, Discussion and Conclusion.
