Answer by Jay Anderson [Slides]

• Question: How do I write my thesis?
  Answer: How to Organize your Thesis by John W. Chinneck
(Note, as the author points out, the text is mainly addressed to PhD students, but though there are different expectations for Master's theses and for Doctoral theses, there is no difference in the format. Hence, BSc and MSc students don't have to be scared by the request of being original --it's not for them --but they have to bare in mind the suggestions on the format --that's for everybody.)
