UWC Graduate Workshops Demystify Dissertations

Are you writing a dissertation?

Or are you avoiding writing a dissertation?

According to The New York Times, half of all graduate students drop out of their degree programs before completing their dissertations.

To keep you from becoming part of that sad statistic, the UWC is conducting a series of workshops to help you navigate the dissertation process.

The first workshop, Get Lit! Writing a Literature Review, will be presented by UWC Associate Director Candace Schaefer from 10 to 11:30 a.m. on Friday, September 25 in room 204E of Evans Library. Participants will learn how to organize sources, integrate source material into their text, and limit or expand the scope of their literature review.

Future workshops will cover drafting abstracts, avoiding plagiarism, writing your conclusion, and preparing for your oral defense.
