Writing a master’s thesis involves structuring the work according to its main stages, which directly or indirectly contribute to the final grade: selecting a topic; consulting with the advisor; gathering material; analyzing sources and scholarly theoretical, methodological, and critical literature; drafting an outline; writing the thesis; formatting the thesis appropriately; and defending it. In contemporary research on issues in linguistics, literary studies, translation studies, and the teaching of foreign languages and literatures, a wide range of research methods at both the theoretical and empirical levels is actively employed. Theoretical methods include analysis and synthesis, abstraction and elaboration, modeling, induction, deduction, and so on. Empirical methods include observation, surveys, testing, experiments. A master’s thesis involves a fundamental stage of selecting, systematizing, and studying theoretical and other informational sources on the chosen research topic.
