See what is commonly done by other students in your position. If you check ten and none of them has a dedication? Then probably don’t give one. But if at least a few of them do, then you should be fine to give one. | |

In my thesis (physics, condensed matter), I made a special note of my advisor (for going above and beyond to keep me focused on a main goal, but also for allowing me many opportunities to delve into specific elements much further than was necessary to achieve the main goal - leading to my "further work" section being much more complete and informed) and some open source communities (particularly those behind key programming libraries) that made my work possible. | |
