Dissertation Editing

It is difficult to overestimate the importance of a dissertation. In many honours degree courses and almost all Master’s degrees, the dissertation is the key element in establishing success or failure.

We know that students take months preparing and researching for their dissertation – and writing can take, at least, weeks of focused concentration. This effort can inadvertently lead to errors – particularly when the dissertation coincides with other deadlines or exams.

For a dissertation to receive the maximum possible marks, the document needs to be flawless – an badly written dissertation can lose marks or, at the very worst, be rejected as incomplete.

Here at Academic Proofreaders, we pride ourselves on ensuring that our clients receive the grade they deserve for their efforts. We believe that dissertations should reflect the research and arguments developed by the author, providing the student with complete confidence that work submitted is their own.

The process is straightforward. Once the dissertation is uploaded to our site, it is allocated to the most suitable member of the dissertation editing team. Our academic editors have experience across a broad range of academic subjects; all our editors hold PhDs from the world’s top universities – and your allocated editor will have a deep understanding of your subject. Each new member of our dissertation editing team is subject to rigorous testing before they are allocated any dissertations – we require our academic editing team members to produce the highest standard of work to support our customers.

Your dedicated academic editor will carry out a detailed review of the dissertation, examining the structure of the document, checking that all internal referencing, such as tables and diagrams, is accurate. The dissertation is then proofread for spelling, punctuation and grammar – correcting any points that are ambiguous or lost due to clumsy sentence structure or confusing grammar. We will also review the document to remove unnecessary repetition, and ensure that the document is consistent in terms of tense and sentence structure.

A final revision results in a document that is logically structured, reader-friendly and consistent with your university’s requirements. We can also review the dissertation’s referencing style and bibliography, checking that your sources are correctly listed.

We take pride in our work, and provide a complete service. Once the review is complete, you will receive a fully reviewed and revised document – not just a list of recommended changes or a list of thoughts on potential improvements.

Our dissertation editing service is highly recommended for all students wanting to avoid dropping a grade by improving the quality of their academic writing, or if English is not your native language and you need reassurance that your meaning can be understood in order to get the grades you deserve.

Our objective is to assist a student in getting the grades they should, for the time and effort they have put into their dissertations. Our academic experience means that we fully understand what a good dissertation means for the student – not just terms of attaining a degree, but the long-term impact on future employment opportunities.
