Thesis Editing
Masters and PhD theses
Your Masters or PhD theses will benefit significantly from the services of a professional editor. Leave the spelling, grammar and punctuation details to an expert so you can focus on your research and writing.
Working within the guidelines from the Institute of Professional Editors (IPEd), we will ensure your writing is clear, concise and error free. We are experienced in working within university guidelines and style guides and will ensure that your thesis conforms to the requirements of your university.
When you choose to have your thesis professionally edited, the IPEd guidelines stipulate that you (and your supervisor) will be responsible for a heavier structural edit for issues with integrity and substance. These guidelines limit the role of an editor to copy editing and proofreading.
Sophista will work with academics to ensure:
- appropriate tone with clear and concise expression,
- clear transitions between paragraphs to ensure flow and coherence
- error free spelling, punctuation and grammar
- consistent use of style for format, layout and referencing
- correct formatting and titles for tables and figures
