The specification of graduation thesis is also the standard of graduation thesis. The specifications or standards of graduation thesis here are mainly in the quality of graduation thesis. As for the number of words required for graduation thesis, different schools have different regulations. Generally speaking, a graduation thesis needs more than 5000 words.

It can only be identified by comparison. In order to better understand the norms of college students' graduation thesis, we compared several papers similar to college students' graduation thesis. College students (mainly undergraduates) usually write two papers during their school days, one is the academic year paper written by the third year of college, and the other is the graduation paper written near graduation. In addition, graduate students who continue to study for a master's degree after graduation from university should write a master's degree thesis, and graduate students who study for a doctorate should write a doctoral degree thesis. Below, we will make some analysis and explanation on the connections and differences between these four papers.

Academic year thesis, graduation thesis, master's degree thesis and doctoral degree thesis are a kind of relationship from shallow to deep, with different academic levels, so there are different specifications or standards.

1. academic paper. It is the ability of college students to analyze and solve an academic problem for the first time after they have finished three years of basic courses in college and have certain basic knowledge. The title of the paper should not be too large, the length should not be too long, the issues involved should not be too wide, and the issues discussed should not be too deep. Novices write papers mainly to accumulate experience in writing papers, master the methods of writing papers, and lay the foundation for writing graduation papers and dissertations in the future. The first two years of college are basically listening to lectures, reading books and accepting previous knowledge; Writing a thesis is not about listening to lectures, reading books, taking notes and summarizing the knowledge of predecessors, but asking yourself to use the knowledge of predecessors to solve some unsolved problems. Writing academic papers is a new job for college students to learn for the first time, so writing academic papers is carried out under the guidance of experienced teachers.

2. Graduation thesis. It is a paper for college students to discuss or solve a problem independently by using the knowledge of basic courses and professional courses they learned last semester. It is written after the initial experience of writing the academic year paper, and the topic is a little bigger and deeper than the academic year paper. Its basic standard should be: through graduation thesis, it can roughly reflect the author's academic level and ability to analyze and solve a basic problem in this discipline by using the basic knowledge learned in three or four years. Of course, its topic should not be too big, its content should not be too complicated, and it needs some originality, so it can better analyze and solve problems that are not too complicated in the subject field. The length of university graduation thesis is generally about 5000 words, and the length of undergraduate graduation thesis is generally more than six words. The graduation thesis of college graduates, if well written, can be used as a thesis for a bachelor's degree.

3. Master's thesis. This is a master's degree thesis, and the academic level is higher than the bachelor's thesis. Must be able to reflect the depth of the author's knowledge and have the author's own new ideas. Article 5 of the Regulations on National Academic Degrees stipulates that graduate students in institutions of higher learning and scientific research or personnel with the same academic qualifications as graduate students can obtain a master's degree if they have a solid basic theory and relatively systematic professional knowledge in this discipline and have the ability to engage in scientific research and professional and technical work independently. In other words, the master's thesis emphasizes that the author should have his own new ideas and originality on academic issues, and the length is generally long, and he should read more relevant important documents before writing.

4. Doctoral thesis. This is a very important scientific research achievement. It requires that the author must have a solid and profound knowledge base in a certain subject field and must have original achievements; Should have a high academic level and academic value, can inspire and guide others to study similar problems and explore other issues, and play a leading and pioneering role in a certain discipline.
