Rock Your Thesis 2: Starting to write

The second in the three-part “Rock Your Thesis” series, this workshop will equip you with the skills you need to start writing a large academic writing project like a thesis, dissertation or dissertation proposal. This hands-on, interactive program has four objectives:

  1. Introduce strategies for describing the contribution and significance of your research project
  2. Give you a chance to create or revising guiding research questions for your literature review
  3. Review a range of organizational options for structuring your literature review
  4. Help you to balance making a clear argument with academic integrity when paraphrasing and summarizing

This workshop is best suited for Master’s and PhD students who have selected a research topic for their thesis or dissertation and are ready to write, or writing, the project proposal or the project itself.
