| Content Overview | The problem statement is critical to completing a dissertation. A well-defined problem statement not only aligns with other parts of the thesis but also helps students maintain focus and direction throughout the writing process. This paper aims to explore the characteristics of an effective problem statement and guide students on how to construct research questions, helping them overcome common challenges in this process. Azad Ali, a professor in the Computer Science department at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and Shardul Pandya, former doctoral advisor at Capella University’s School of Business, Technology, and Healthcare Administration, have extensive experience guiding doctoral students. Their insights offer valuable support for students during the dissertation process and provide a helpful reference for future research and educational practice. |
