Are you in creative anxiety of writing a synopsis or doing a thesis?
For competent hands-on experience in developing a synopsis or a thesis, the following are the key considerations on how we approach research supervision:
Searching for valued research hypotheses:
The prime focus is laid upon how to choose an appropriate research design that can closely approximate the statement of the research hypothesis. Sometimes, we need to rephrase the statement of the research hypothesis, so that to make it more scientific in appearance and to make it testable.
Synchronizing research design with stated hypotheses:
While furnishing the research design, we need to carefully inspect that the choice of methodological tools, justify the needs of the data and the data instruments.
Creative anxiety and urge for academically valued research:
For beginners in research, we urge to differentiate among obsolete, contemporary, and forthcoming designs, so that the intellectual worth of the proposed research may early be evaluated. In order to do that effectively, we have to rely heavily on key databases of academic literature such as the Jstor, Science Direct, Springer Link, Sage, etc. so that any research notion may strongly be grounded in literature.
Structure of the proposed research:
As research supervisors we have to make sure that the research notion is indigenous, and that the proposed work is not been affected by bounded rationality (too little knowledge). Special emphasis is laid upon how to structure the thesis into a detailed table of contents, how to conduct and write a review of literature, in a way so that the incidence of plagiarism may naturally be avoided.
Analytical needs, the data, and the choice of methodology:
How to make choices of the data collection methods among primary data collection in form of designing semi-structured or fully structured questionnaires, deciding about the selection of variables for specific analytical needs using databases of statistical information in a time series analysis, and how to pool the data. Keeping in view the orientation of research towards quantitative or qualitative research designs, we can supplement the use of packages such as Stata, SPSS, Minitab, and Nvivo.
Research reporting:
How to report findings and results, how to interpret results, and how to specify limitations of research.
Task management:
Managing, and scheduling research activities, using Gantt charts, etc.
About the Supervisor:
Has diversified and multidisciplinary research interests, in domains of social sciences and in humanities.
Has 17 years experience in academic research, including roles as thesis supervisor, senior research fellow, and coordinator of the research.
Has supervised theses at the bachelor’s and master’s level in domains of Social sciences such as Business administration, Economics, Political Science, and humanities such as Sociology and Psychology.
Is an author of several journal articles, while quite a few research papers are published in international conference proceedings.
Reviews and Recommendations
Shirin Hakim
Perfect! He is very knowledgeable in the scientific methods and was able to help me establish a robust understanding of the most appropriate methodologies for my study, something I have been struggling with for so long on my own. He is very professional, kind, and helpful. I would highly recommend working with him on any methodological work.
He has played a monumental role in the progress of my doctorate work and I am so grateful to have him as a mentor!
Michael
Superb! He proved to be incredibly trustworthy and knowledgeable, given his extensive background as a thesis advisor.
Not only was he available to help me grasp econometric and quantitative topics I struggled with but he was also available to review the overall structure of my thesis, assisting with support of appropriate sections and selecting a clear but highly appropriate thesis title, something which I did not have prior to our meeting.
Over the three weeks spent working with him, I truly believe that he allowed me to bring my overall thesis up to a first-class standard paper (fingers crossed!), given where I originally sat.
Sumaira
Highly recommended for all those who want to master research skills and produce exceptionally high-quality indigenous research projects/dissertations under the supervision of the finest faculty and supervisor.
The professor is at the core of a system designed to provide individual attention throughout the course while maintaining the highest international standards of academic excellence.
Smith
Superb! I learned a lot about the use of quantitative tools for the analysis of the data and how to structure my thesis, from the ‘Profess’ supervisor. Sheer competence and absolutely recommended!
Shahrzad
Marvelous! A trustworthy and knowledgeable person. He paid full attention and his time to my proposed plan of research, with care and dedication. He is precise, competent, and impeccable. I am very grateful to him for making me survive in my dissertation.
Edmar
Superb experience of learning, as I grasped lots of thoughtful know-how from your guidance! It really helped me understand the difficult stages of my research proposal and concepts of quantitative methods, such as Logistics and Poisson regression models. The way you explain things is clear, direct, and self-explanatory. I really like your style of guidance as it makes me comfortable especially at difficult stages of my thesis.
Olange
Perfect! He is keen, competent, and stable-headed. Manages the time and difficult situations, effectively. Highly recommended for troubleshooting as part of thesis or in the domain of quantitative modeling.
Sandre
Superb! Passionate, enthusiastic and above all a cool person with a natural inclination to approach rather complex quantitative situations, with clarity. His knowledge and exposure to deal with quantitative research seem to be deeply grounded in an understanding of econometrics, statistics, and mathematics, and he is used to demonstrating expertise in this regard tremendously and repeatedly. His worthy guidance and comments may especially be seen as invaluable for research students, persons who are doing a thesis for the first time in their life, and for those who seek guidance in quantitative methods.
Andrew
He has a strong grasp on applied model building, research designs, and methodological paradigms. He can delicately choose a suitable methodology, with a reasonable understanding of the efficacy of tools as well as limitations of a said method. He is naturally inclined to use quantitative modeling skills in his coaching and thesis supervision experience. Much recommended.
Siva
Fabulous and excellent in coaching and problem-solving skills, specifically in research and quantitative methods! Dedicated and able to manage things, quickly! He provides unparalleled professional support, guidance, and problem-solving assistance. There is no doubt that his professional competence is at a very high level, and he is conscientious and orderly, as I experienced him as genuinely committed to desiring and doing his utmost to help me become as good as possible. He responded quickly to all my inquiries, which made progress in my work on the subject. He has commendable writing expression.
Sohail
The competent’ is the expression that comes to mind when I think about him. He is that smart avid person who inspires everyone with his intellectual, creative, responsible, calm, witty, cool-headed attitude. I was always looking forward to enjoying his’s capacity to influence a meeting and get people on board with his analytical ideas—even people who were initially on completely different pages.
Tavan
Perfekt! An incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and so calm person! So much support I received along the way and with positive feedback gave me the confidence that no matter how difficult some courses are, it goes with the right help. I sought help in quantitative methods to ensure my proficiency. Everything just seems so simple when the right person helps and explains it
