Dissertation
After years of research, analysis and substantiating your findings, it is time to start writing and structuring your thesis. This is a crucial step if you wish to complete your PhD at university and earn that coveted doctoral degree. Writing a thesis is not only exciting, but also a wonderful experience, as it brings together all the results you have achieved.
By presenting this life’s work in a distinctive way, using the right graphic designs, fonts, high-quality materials and professional support from ProefschriftMaken, you will produce a book of which you can undoubtedly be proud.
What is a dissertation?
The literal definition of a dissertation is: “the writing of a thesis in order to obtain a doctorate”. If, as a university student, you wish to be awarded a doctorate and obtain your PhD, you are referred to as a PhD candidate. You are already well on your way to obtaining your doctorate, and you do so by writing a dissertation. Through your dissertation, you conduct doctoral research, which you must defend in order to be awarded the doctorate and be entitled to use the title of PhD.
A dissertation is therefore an official piece of research, compiled into a book, which takes a great deal of time to complete. In fact, you can now regard it as your life’s work, which you are now going to present in a professional manner to impress the examination board and through which you can obtain an official title.
Writing a dissertation: what’s the point?
You write a dissertation because you want to demonstrate the value of your research, and because you want to be awarded a PhD by the university as a PhD candidate. It is therefore important that you focus not only on the writing process, but also on the overall presentation of the thesis.
By paying close attention to the visual aspects of your thesis, your work will be a pleasure to read and take on a professional look. Think of the perfect finish, unique design and a cover that makes everyone want to pull it off the bookshelf.
Writing your thesis is entirely up to you, but when it comes to professional layout, printing and finishing, we’re happy to help. You’ll need the right knowledge and tools for this, and ProefschriftMaken provides excellent support in this regard.
Printing your thesis with ProefschriftMaken
Theses are the life’s work of university students, representing a great deal of time and effort – and, in all likelihood, a great deal of passion. Producing a thesis using paper from your own printer or having it printed at a local print shop will not give you the level of professionalism you are looking for. Would you like to have a durable, high-quality and professional dissertation printed with an experienced and professional designer at your side? Then ProefschriftMaken is the solution.
We work with you to ensure that your thesis is printed in a way that perfectly reflects your personal taste and, just as importantly, your research. For many years, we have been creating unique layouts for various PhD candidates, designing distinctive covers that perfectly capture the book’s content, and taking all technical aspects into account. This includes margins, illustrations, line spacing, print density and more, to ensure your dissertation is printed to the highest standard, without compromising the quality of your book.
Sustainable printing
ProefschriftMaken ensures that your life’s work is in safe hands. This means that we handle your dissertation with the utmost care. It also means that we take the environment into account during the design phase and the printing process. We work exclusively with sustainable materials, such as extremely high-quality recycled paper. Furthermore, as an organisation, we contribute to various charities and projects. With us, you are therefore assured of sustainable printing for your dissertations.
The essence of graphic quality
The time you have spent writing your thesis deserves to be rewarded. The account of your extensive research is therefore something you will want to present professionally. It is not only what you say that is important, but also how you say it. It is therefore essential to give both the cover and the interior a unique character, with high-quality graphic design and a finish that perfectly complements the book.
Our professionals, including designers and technical specialists, know better than anyone how to approach the professional design of dissertations or theses. We always take our clients’ requirements as our starting point and work according to an efficient step-by-step plan, ensuring that every aspect is taken into account.
How does it work?
Service and personalised support go hand in hand with us. And that’s the case from the moment you walk through our door for advice. First, we’ll sit down with you to discuss your requirements. We’ll go through these from A to Z: from fonts to finishing touches, and from the cover to the margins. Our specialists have years of experience in planning, designing and printing dissertations. We therefore offer a wide range of printing options and production methods to suit every budget.
Once you are happy with the result, you will first receive a proof. If this is entirely to your satisfaction, we will print the entire run using the production method of your choice.
