Umberto Eco's classic guide walks students through every stage of writing an academic thesis, choosing a topic, planning a schedule, researching, organizing material and assembling the final text, drawing mainly on examples from literature and philosophy but intended to be adaptable to other fields.
Como se hace una tesis is Umberto Eco's practical guide to writing an academic thesis, first published in Italian in 1977. It covers what a thesis is, how to choose a topic and plan a working timetable, how to carry out bibliographic research, how to organize the material gathered, and how to physically put the thesis together. Eco's examples focus on theses in the humanities, particularly literature and philosophy, though he intended the advice to be adaptable to other fields, including experimental work in the sciences. Decades after it first appeared, it is still widely used as an introduction to research method.
