degree thesis or project. The statement of significance clearly demonstrates the importance of the project from an academic point of view; however, you will need to support that with evidence on how the project will contribute to your fields of study in addition to other areas of academia, professional practice, or society. As a graduate student at any university, you are expected to explain how your research will contribute to knowledge, fill a knowledge gap, or provide a practical result. If you create a well-written significance statement, your research proposal will have an overall stronger impact on the thesis supervisor and evaluators, increasing the likelihood that it will be pursued as research.
