Summary/Abstract: Interest in postgraduate education in the field of Sufism in Turkey is increasing daily. One of the conditions for the successful completion of graduate education is the preparation of the thesis in the area in the presence of an advisor and defending it before the scientific committee. The idea to be supported must be prepared using a particular method and must be comply with according to research-writing ethics. Generally accepted research methods and academic writing styles must be followed to obtain the necessary results from the efforts of graduate students and their advisors to contribute to the relevant scientific fields. This study aims to provide the opportunity to transfer experience and guide as much as possible to young researchers who want to do academic studies in this field by taking the science of Sufism, a sub-discipline of Islamic studies, into the center. While preparing this text, published studies on academic research and writing before 2022 were determined, and those that could be reached were examined and benefited from. In addition, the experience we have gained since we started our graduate education, the knowledge we have gained by observing and listening to our leading teachers in this field, and the written memoirs have also formed this study's source. At the end of the study, a general evaluation was made for those who would do academic research in this field, and some proposals and wishes were also included.
