The dissertation is still seen as the pinnacle of studies for an undergraduate programme of studies in most geography, earth and environmental sciences (GEES) departments in the UK, yet how do we prepare students to undertake the work and what do students think of the experience? This paper examines the student perspective of the dissertation experience via the analysis of questionnaires issued to former students in two UK institutions. As an extension to this analysis, 32 departmental dissertation handbooks from a range of UK institutions are reviewed. Evidence from the handbooks and questionnaires reveals some of the key issues of putting theory into practice. For example, studying the right topic, student enjoyment of independent fieldwork, and establishing a good student-staff supervisory relationship are important. However, students have difficulty with time management and knowing what is expected. Based on the issues identified, a series of questions is made by way of conclusion. These questions could be used as prompts for GEES departments should they wish to review the management and assessment of the dissertation. Finally, various practical suggestions are provided as to how the student experience of independent learning might be enhanced with specific reference to the student dissertation handbook. . Examples of practice in dissertation handbooks useful to students † Research design-the importance of linking theory, method and analysis † Sources of fieldwork funding † Plagiarism declaration forms † Limitations of word spell checks † Scientific nomenclature † Advice for lone fieldwork † Dissertation progress reviews, workshops and seminars † Student achievement target forms † How to deal with confidential information † Past dissertation titles † Advice from past students † Procedures for changing topics † Deferring or withdrawing from the dissertation † Pilot studies † Details of staff expertise † Information regarding extra support such as support/welfare officers and information for students with disabilities regarding fieldwork † Appeal and complaints procedure † Alternative forms of presentation.
