University of Washington Dissertation Boot Camp
UW Doctoral students: are you working on your dissertation? Are you at the beginning, or about to begin the writing process? Have you hit a road-block in your dissertation work and need to get "unstuck"?
There are many resources here at the University of Washington that can make this challenging task a bit easier. Wouldn't it be nice if you could access them all in one place, over the course of a single day?
The Dissertation Boot Camp in the University Libraries Research Commons will take place over one Saturday (October 11, 2014) from 8:30AM-4:30PM. Talks and breakout sessions tailored to the needs of dissertation writers will be presented. Topics for these sessions may include: citation management, tools for productivity and project management, finding graduate funding, submitting your dissertation electronically, open access publishing, dealing with writers block, and more.
Program Goals 1. Acquire a set of skills, tools, and contacts that will foster success in your dissertation writing. 2. Gain structure and motivation from peers and advisors to help overcome typical roadblocks in the dissertation process. 3. Discover the role of UW Libraries, the UW Graduate School, and the Odegaard Writing and Research Center as sources of support for you dissertation writing.
Cost A $15 fee will be charged at registration, and will cover the cost of your lunch and materials.
