Chapter 01: INTRODUCTION
Here are some of the point you have to cover to make sure that you
Introduction will give the reader a strong vision of the direction
you want your project to take.
1. Present the problem and concerns, which will bring you to choose to
work on your proposal. You should do this without using the word “I”
and without presenting your proposal just yet.
7. Wrap up. Before you start with the next part, make sure you have
linked all the things you have discussed. Do not leave the
reader wondering where you got the idea of conducting this study. If you
can come up with a clever parting statement here, then by all means, DO!
1.1.3b OBJECTIVES
Objectives are more SPECFIC targets, which eventually
lead to the attainment of your architectural goal. You may want
to group them by certain categories as determined by your
goal, or arrange them accordingly to importance.
1.1.3c STRATEGIES
Strategies are particular actions you have to do to
achieve each specific objective. Forget about architectural for a
while and focus on RESEARCH WORK. What you need to know, study,
research on, survey, observe, estimate or program in order to create
a body of knowledge that will lead to meeting your objectives. It
would, therefore, be more comprehensible if you allow the
succeeding outline in stating your thesis goals, objectives and
strategies.

Who will benefit from your studies? How can this study be of
any help in fostering a better architecture? These are few of the
questions you have to take into considerations in writing the
significance of your thesis. This may deal with the social,
economic or cultural aspects of the project. You can even combine
or address all of the aspects if you like. But HOLD IT! Do not
think of yourself as some kind of God who can actually SOLVE the
problems with your thesis in blink of an eye. You cannot alleviate
poverty nor improve the whole bureautic system through your study.
1.1.6 ASSUMPTION
2. Terms should be defined operationally, that is, how they are used in
your study. For instance the study is about accessibility. What do you
mean by accessibility? To make the meaning clear you have to
define what covers the term, essential for a clearer understanding of
your study.
3. Materials may not be too few or too many. It is always best to know
where and when to stop. Maintain a balanced presentation of
literature, just when enough, not to overwhelm your readers. In an
undergraduate thesis like yours ten (10) pieces of literature
for review is recommended.
This will be the part where you will inform your readers if
there is a theory you want to prove e.g. a limited area can affect
the behavior of a drug dependent, or a concept you want to test
say, a moving space is a best suited for the healing mind.

software was designed, the number of units of memory, and the
