Top 9 Mistakes students do while writing their final year project thesis
A large part of any final year thesis project is the write-up, but every stage of the project will involve some form of writing. Whether you are writing a proposal, an interim report, a draft report, documentation or the final thesis, a very large part of your time will be spent composing text. These are the top 9 mistakes we see from students year on year, avoid them and you can save yourself a lot of time (and earn a lot of marks)…
1. Unsubstantiated claims
How to Read Long & Boring Research Papers easily?
We often find that if students haven’t done much of this sort of reading before their get to their final year getting started can be a bit of a shock. So, this post is designed to help you get started with academic literature and, just as importantly, to help you get the most out of the papers you read in the short space of time you have available (and it is a short space of time, believe me).
Remember the structure of a paper is just like the structure of your thesis

Research update on Impedance Tomography in Biomedical imaging
Tomographic image of lungs taken with the EIT chest belt developed at CSEM. At the start of inhalation, the lungs are not visible (reference image). Following the inhalation cycle, the lungs filled with air appear in blue (indication of an air-filled, hence less conductive, material).
A thesis on the use of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for noninvasive patient monitoring argues for the development of an EIT device suitable for large-scale commercialisation. Completed by Pascal Olivier Gaggero at the Swiss private research centre CSEM and University of Neuchâtel, the thesis reportedly represents a significant step forward in the clinical use of EIT.
