A Dissertator’s Primer
2 hours

Intended Audience

Intended for dissertators at the proposal stage or well into their projects: sign up for the session appropriate to the status of your work. Students writing empirical research proposals may also be interested in our Graduate Research Proposals class.


Overview

These classes are aimed at helping dissertators stay focused on their writing, from proposal to completion. Sections for the proposal stage focus on choosing a topic, selecting a committee, and writing the proposal.  The section on the dissertation stage focuses on managing a major project, obtaining appropriate feedback, and revising your work.

Please note the separate sections for (1) those just getting started or writing the proposal and (2) dissertation writers further along in the process.
