Yashaswini, ensure your abstract includes whatever is asked for by the University. Check if your University has demanded a structured abstract or may be just a paragraph. Also maintain the word count. Abstract should be too long/short. in general, an abstract should be between 200 and 250 words.

Make sure you mention the methods you followed to obtain the solution for the research problem. Also incorporate the results and a brief summary of your conclusions in your abstract.

Hello. While writing the abstract provide keywords that describes the content included in the thesis. And also, a title must be able to grasp your reader’s attention. It should convey reason behind your research as clearly as possible. Tip: Keywords should be added in a separate line after your abstract.
