The preface to thesis posted here has been published before. I modified it a little as an example. Readers can look at the example of the introduction to the thesis that I post here so that later they can make it yourself and the thesis will finish quickly with good results.

Also read: Examples of Final Project Proposals The preface to the thesis is written with the aim of being an “introduction” to the readers of the thesis content. Although “only” as an introduction, this section should be written seriously. Not infrequently among students, the introduction of the thesis becomes a place for sharing during the thesis writing process. It doesn’t matter as long as the writing is not eccentric, so it reduces the quality of academic work.

What are the boundaries like? It is written in good and correct language, not alay ala kids ala. The following is an example of a preface to the thesis that I have modified, especially the name and location:

Here is an example. Because it has been published, be careful of plagiarism.

Praise be to Allah who created and organized the universe. Blessings and greetings to the noble Prophet, Muhammad saw, his family and all his companions.

The internet has become part of our civilization today, one of the symbols of technological development, a symbol of ‘modern’ civilization. In economic activity, the internet has begun to change the way people transact and buy and sell. Internet marketing is becoming a new variant in the ‘modern’ business strategy. For batik entrepreneurs in Kauman, Solo, the internet can be an opportunity as well as a challenge in developing a batik business unit in the future. This study is an attempt by the author to determine the response of batik entrepreneurs to internet marketing as part of the business strategy they implement.

A brief description

At first glance we can summarize that the introduction to the thesis as in the example above contains expressions of gratitude, reviews of the thesis theme, gratitude and hopes with the completion of the thesis. Do not forget to also include the name of the thesis writer in the lower corner.

In the first paragraph , the author expresses his gratitude for the presence of God Almighty for the completion of the thesis. This section is not obligatory at the top, but noble expressions praising the Supreme Being are generally placed first.

In the second paragraph , the author discusses briefly what is discussed in the thesis. In other words, the second paragraph is an overview of the research topic or theme. This section serves as an introduction for the reader to know what the thesis is about.

Also read: Thesis Framework The next paragraphs contain thanks to people who have contributed to the writing of the thesis. It is not uncommon for thesis writers to vent here, describing how the closest people are involved in the struggle of their thesis. For the record, don’t forget to include the participants, especially if the thesis involves going to the field and using the interview method, if there is enough space, of course. Also remember, don’t vent too long.

In the last paragraph , the author expresses expectations, including a statement to receive comments from readers. The foreword of the thesis ends with the full name of the author.
