The final dissertation chapter serves as the culmination of the dissertation document. Students should be prepared to answer the research questions in addition to outlining implications from those answers. Students also should be prepared to recommendnext steps or actions that can be taken by practitioners and other researchers based on the findings of the research study. These key steps allow the research study to be impactful well beyond the student’s dissertation experience.
