Area/broad discipline: Biomedical, Spine biomechanics Word count: ~26,000 Date for : 14 Jan Referencing style: Harvard

Here are more details to give a better idea The expected word count of my thesis (based on Microsoft Word's count feature), including figures and tables but excluding references, is about 26,000 words, as follows:

Chapter 1: 1500 words Chapter 2: 8000 words Chapter 3: 3842 words Chapter 4: 4024 words (it will refer to an appendix with figures, not yet included) Chapter 5: 3650 words (it refers to an appendix with figures) Chapter 6: 3827 words (it refers to two appendices: one with two pages of figures, another about 25 pages, mostly figures) Chapter 7: 400 to 1200 words

I expect the final document to be available in both Word and PDF formats and to include:

Chapter 1: Introduction
Chapter 2: Literature Review
Chapter 3: Methods
Chapter 4: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion
Chapter 5: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion
Chapter 6: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion
Chapter 7: Future Work
Chapter 8: References
Appendices
If this suits you, the work plan is for me to provide you with the completed chapters 3, 4, 5, and 6. Chapter 3 requires further work, especially in terms of structure.

While you work on these chapters, I will complete writing my introduction and literature review, which need updates. I will also work on the future work chapter and then send them to you for editing and completing the thesis structure.

I have used EndNote for referencing and plan to keep the in-text citations as they are. They will be matched with their references when the thesis is completed.
