The thesis opening report is an indispensable link in the work of graduate dissertations, and it is a powerful measure to cultivate the ability of graduate students to conduct scientific research independently, review and complete the progress plan of dissertations and ensure the quality of dissertations. Postgraduate opening report is also a phased evaluation, which can further clarify the objectives and expected level of the paper and make the topic selection more accurate and appropriate. Make the relevant personnel of the college (department) and teaching and research section (research room) understand the topic selection of graduate students, and let more people care about the progress of graduate thesis work. Through the opening report and expert review, graduate students can better understand all kinds of problems that should be handled and solved in the process of this topic, and adjust the work plan of the thesis in time; At the same time, it can also play the role of communication between graduate students and tutors. The following requirements are put forward for the opening report of the paper:
First, the topic selection
Thesis topic selection is the beginning of graduate research work, and it is also an important aspect for tutors to guide graduate work. Whether the topic of the paper is appropriate or not is related to the success or failure of the paper. The preparation of the thesis topic should be considered as early as possible, and it is required to start in the second semester after enrollment and must be completed before the end of the third semester at the latest. The topic of the thesis should be selected on the basis of the tutor's full understanding of the graduate students, which should be considered first by the tutor and determined after soliciting the opinions of the graduate students. It can also be proposed by graduate students and approved by tutors. When choosing a topic, generally grasp the following principles:
1, the topic should be difficult, pioneering in academic aspects and advanced in technical application, so that the research topic has high theoretical significance, academic level and practical value.
2, the topic must be closely linked with reality, solve some urgent scientific and technological problems in economic construction, and try to combine the scientific research projects undertaken by the tutor to guide and promote the national economy and social development, and strive to have better social and economic benefits.
3, according to the instructor's expertise, scientific research foundation and experimental conditions to determine the subject, the necessary experimental equipment should be basically implemented, the necessary experimental conditions should be basically available.
4. It is necessary to combine the foundation and specialty of graduate students, so that graduate students can get basic training in the whole process of research work through thesis work.
5, the size and difficulty of the topic should be appropriate, leaving room for time arrangement, and very sure to complete the task within the scheduled time.
Second, the contents of the opening report
1, the source of the topic and the basis of the topic selection. It is mainly for graduate students to analyze the history, present situation and development of their research direction, focusing on the course of topic selection, the research trends at home and abroad, the idea of developing the research work of this course, and at the same time clarifying the theoretical significance, practical value and social and economic benefits of topic selection, as well as the progress or breakthrough in what aspects.
2. Fully explain the theoretical and practical significance, value and possible level of the determined project, and demonstrate the theoretical and technical feasibility of your own project plan, determined technical route, experimental plan and expected results.
3, the research process, what methods and means to use, whether the current equipment and other conditions are available.
4. Explain the difficulties and problems that may be encountered in the research work, as well as the methods and measures to solve them.
5. Estimate the funds needed for the thesis work, and explain the sources of funds.
Third, the requirements of the opening report
1. Opening time: The opening report should be completed by the end of the third semester at the latest. If you don't start the questions on time, you can subtract 1 to 5 points from the test paper score as appropriate.
2. Postgraduates should conduct systematic literature review and extensive investigation and research, write detailed literature review, conduct on-site investigation and preliminary experimental research, then write a written opening report of about 5,000 words, formulate a detailed paper work plan, and be reviewed and revised by the tutor. Before opening the topic, graduate students should distribute relevant references and all kinds of theoretical analysis and experimental data to the relevant personnel attending the meeting in advance as the basis for opening the topic.
3, the opening report must be carried out in the college or teaching and research section (research room), composed of 3 to 5 people opening report review team, and invited teachers and students of this major to participate in, listen to all kinds of opinions. Members of the review team should review the submitted opening report and related materials in advance to prepare for the meeting.
The meeting should carry forward academic democracy and conduct strict examination and scientific demonstration of graduate opening reports. If the topic is appropriate, the arguments are sufficient and the measures are implemented, the topic of the paper should be approved; If there are still shortcomings, it is necessary to revise and supplement them within a time limit and make a report again. If you start the topic again, you won't pass. Then cancel the graduate student status and terminate the training.
