It's time to start planning your thesis or dissertation: now what? 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.
Part 3: Revise and Submit
The third in the three-part “Rock Your Thesis” series, this workshop will equip you with the skills you need to revise your thesis or dissertation draft and plan to submit and defend it. This hands-on, interactive program has three objectives:
-
Review the submission and defence process and timelines
-
Introduce a range of revision strategies and both the structural and sentence levels.
-
Give participants an opportunity to try out revision and peer-review activities with their own work
This workshop is best suited for Master’s and PhD students who have written at least part of their thesis or dissertation draft. Please bring a laptop, digital copy of your work-in-progress, and a printed copy of at least 10 pages of your thesis or dissertation.
