Today is the last day of Japanese long-term holidays, but I was writing my graduation thesis in English as well as yesterday.
Since there are so many technical terms in the thesis, I'm concerned about whether my sentences make sense.
Therefore, when I finish writing the thesis, I will ask native experts to correct.
It costs 12 yen per one word, so one page that was written about 500 words cost about 6,000 yen.
It seems my doctoral thesis be more than 100 pages (because my master's thesis was about 100 pages), when I ask to correct all the pages, it will cost more than 600,000 yen.
I don't know whether this price is expensive or not, but maybe I should invest such money for writing a good doctoral thesis.

今日は長期連休の最終日ですが、私は昨日と同様に英語で卒業論文を書いていました。
専門用語が多いので、意味が通じるのかとても心配です。
そこで、私は論文が書けたら、ネイティブの専門家に校正の依頼しようと考えています。
1単語につき12円程かかるので、約500単語書かれた1ページには約6000円かかります。
博士論文は100ページを超えると思われるので（修士論文が100ページ程だったため）、全ページ校正してもらうと約60万円以上かかります。
安いのか高いのかいまいちよくわかりませんが、良い英語の博士論文を書くためには、これくらいの投資は必要なのかもしれません。

> I will ask native speakers to correct it.
Actually, in this sentence, I wanted to say something like "I will ask native speakers who are also technology professionals (experts) to correct it."
> Are the pages all text or is there also graphs and tables to take up space?
Ah, I forgot it. The pages include graphs, tables and equations, and they will occupy around 30 %, so the cost will be 30 % OFF!
