For international students, academic papers are an important task, and how to write a complete academic paper is crucial. Firstly, we need to clarify that a complete academic paper should include the following components:
1. Title Page
On the first page of the paper, it is necessary to include the title of the paper and the name of the author.
This page can also contain other information, such as title, author, mentor, date, etc.
2. Knowledge
On the second page of the paper, you can write a brief thank-you letter to express gratitude to those who helped complete the research
For example, personnel providing resources and support, collaborators, readers, and so on.
3. Executive Summary
This is an overview chapter, similar to an abstract of a journal article, used to provide an overview of the entire content, allowing readers to quickly understand the main points and findings of the report.
4. Content Page
This page is used to provide readers with a table of contents for each section of the paper, so that readers can easily find the parts they are interested in.
5. Introduction
At the beginning of the paper, the author should elaborate in detail on the purpose, content, and core points of the report, so that readers can better understand the theme and purpose of the paper.
6. Background
In this section, the author should provide necessary information to help readers understand the content of the report.
This section may include historical background, research background, relevant literature review, etc.
7. Methodology
In this section, the author should explain how to explore the issues in the report and draw conclusions.
This section may include research methods, data collection, data analysis, etc.
8. Findings
In this section, the author should state the significant findings made in the report.
This section may include survey results, data analysis results, conclusions, etc.
9. Analysis
In this section, the author should interpret the findings and discuss their relevance and importance.

10. Conclusion

This section may include summarizing research findings, discussing the contributions and significance of the research, and providing suggestions.
11. Recommendations

This section usually includes information such as the titles, authors, publication dates, and publication locations of reference materials such as books, articles, papers, and reports.
13. Exhibits
