Thesis
A thesis or dissertation〔Originally, the concepts "dissertation" and "thesis" (plural, "theses") were not interchangeable. When, at ancient universities, the lector had completed his lecture, there would traditionally follow a disputation, during which students could take up certain points and argue them. The position that one took during a disputation was the thesis, while the dissertation was the line of reasoning with which one buttressed it. Olga Weijers: The medieval ''disputatio''. In: (''Hora est! (On dissertations)'' ), p.23-27. Leiden University Library, 2005〕 is a document submitted in support of candidature for an academic degree or professional qualification presenting the author's research and findings.〔International Standard ISO 7144: Documentation—(Presentation of theses and similar documents ), International Organization for Standardization, Geneva, 1986.〕 In some contexts, the word "thesis" or a cognate is used for part of a bachelor's or master's course, while "dissertation" is normally applied to a doctorate, while in other contexts, the reverse is true.〔(Douwe Breimer, Jos Damen et al.: ''Hora est! (On dissertations)'' ). Leiden University Library, 2005〕 The term ''graduate thesis'' is sometimes used to refer to both master's theses and doctoral dissertations.〔https://www.grad.ubc.ca/handbook-graduate-supervision/graduate-thesis〕 Dissertations and theses may be considered to be grey literature. The required complexity and/or quality of research of a thesis or dissertation can vary by country, university and/or program, therefore, the required minimum study period may vary significantly in duration. The word dissertation can at times be used to describe a treatise without relation to obtaining an academic degree. The term thesis is also used to refer to the general claim of an essay or similar work. ==Etymology== The term "thesis" comes from the Greek , meaning "something put forth", and refers to an intellectual proposition. "Dissertation" comes from the Latin ''dissertātiō'', meaning "path".
