Students all over the world perform such an assignment as dissertation writing. Not many people can, actually, define a dissertation as a kind of writing as such, since students from different countries define a dissertation differently.
 
Thus, in this article we are going to present how people from different countries define a dissertation.
 
Canada
 
In Canada students define dissertations as the major paper, which undergraduate students are to complete. Sometimes, such paper should be presented as the final project before getting a master’s degree – in such cases this project is called a thesis. A typical undergraduate thesis is about 40 pages, masters’ theses are about 100 pages and PhD theses – 200 pages.

In France people define a dissertation as a these. Dissertation is usually considered to be shorter than a thèse and requires more generic assignments.
 
United Kingdom
 
In the UK people define dissertations as a so-called project needed for receiving an undergraduate or a Master’s degree, whereas the word thesis is usually applied to PhD or EngD.
 
USA
 
In the USA people define a dissertation as the major student’s project, required for receiving a doctoral degree, whilst a thesis is associated with a Master’s degree only.
 
As you can see, in many countries people define a dissertation in different ways.
