Rock Your Thesis 1: Plan Your Project

You’re about to finish your coursework or comprehensive exams and have started to think about writing your thesis or dissertation. Where do you begin?

Rock Your Thesis is a three-part program that guides graduate students through the first phases of planning and writing a thesis or dissertation. The series covers topics such as planning and project management, structuring your thesis or dissertation, writing a literature review, using strategies for finding and recording research sources, and revision.

Each of the three Rock Your Thesis sessions balances talks from support staff across campus with hands-on activities to guide you through your own planning, drafting, and revising process.

The first in the three-part 'Rock Your Thesis' series, this workshop will help you clarify your direction and develop a practical plan for successfully executing a large academic writing project, such as a thesis or dissertation.
