This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Department Chair's Name] [Department Name] [University Name] [University Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Disapproval of Senior Graduate Thesis Proposal Dear [Department Chair's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally express my disappointment and disapproval of the senior graduate thesis proposal presented by [Student's Name]. After careful consideration and evaluation, I regret to inform you that the thesis proposal falls significantly short of the required academic standards and expectations set by our department at [University Name]. The thesis proposal submitted by [Student's Name] lacked depth, coherence, and novelty that are essential aspects of a successful senior graduate thesis. Despite our clear guidelines and numerous opportunities provided for guidance and feedback throughout the process, the proposal failed to demonstrate a sound foundation of knowledge and research within the chosen field. Specifically, the thesis proposal lacked a comprehensive literature review, which is a fundamental aspect of any research project. It is crucial for the student to demonstrate an understanding of the existing body of knowledge in the field and how their research will contribute to it. Unfortunately, [Student's Name]'s proposal did not provide an adequate analysis of relevant literature and failed to establish a substantial context for their research. Another issue with the proposal was the research methodology. The methodology employed by [Student's Name] was insufficient to address the research questions and objectives outlined in the proposal. The research design lacked clarity, lacked a coherent framework, and did not demonstrate an appropriate strategy to collect and analyze data effectively. Moreover, the proposed sample size and research participants were inadequate for drawing meaningful conclusions. Furthermore, the significance of the research questioned the originality and contribution to the field. It is essential for a senior graduate thesis to offer new insights or perspectives to the existing body of knowledge. Regrettably, [Student's Name]'s proposal did not clearly articulate how their research would contribute to the field and failed to identify any gaps in current knowledge that their thesis intended to address. Given the aforementioned deficiencies in the proposal, I am left with no choice but to disapprove [Student's Name]'s senior graduate thesis at this stage. However, please note that I encourage [Student's Name] to revise and resubmit the proposal after addressing the outlined concerns. I am more than willing to provide guidance and support throughout this process to ensure that [Student's Name] can navigate towards an acceptable thesis topic and design. Nevertheless, I must emphasize the importance of addressing these concerns promptly and meeting the academic standards expected from our department at [University Name]. Failure to do so may hinder [Student's Name] from graduating within the expected timeframe. I appreciate your attention to this matter and would be pleased to discuss any further details or concerns regarding this decision. Thank you for your understanding and assistance in maintaining the quality and integrity of our graduate program. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Title] [Department Name] [University Name]
