想问大佬们thesis和report区别有多大

18fall入学 我申到的MS program都是需要写project report而不是thesis
因为还想申PhD，就有点彷徨，科研经历不丰富肯定会成为硬伤

还是这些其实都无所谓，应该一入学就努力加入课题发论文更有帮助一点呢？

深深觉得MS对PhD申请其实并不太友好，一两年的时间感觉并不是很够自己弥补之前在科研上的补足，只能很遗憾说自己准备太晚了……

谢谢大佬们了！

我看有的帖子別人會把自己做的project整理成論文然後當做科研經歷...

Project report can be regarded as a "preliminary version" of thesis. After you finish a project, you write project report which can then be turned into a thesis, and a thesis is like a "preliminary/unpublished version" of paper. As for your future career, you don't need to worry about the difference between report-based or thesis-based MS program. For PhD application, that does not make much difference.

thesis比project report更加general一点吧
