Term 3 2022: Workshops for Thesis Writers

If you are working on a thesis, these workshops are for you!

The Academic Skills Centre would like to invite thesis writers to our next series of workshops. Academic Skills for Thesis Writers is aimed specifically at students ‒ at master’s and doctoral levels ‒ who are writing a thesis. The workshops cater for those who are at the thesis proposal stage, through to students whose theses are nearing completion.

These sessions together comprise a single course, however, you can choose to attend only those sessions that you will find useful.

There will be one workshop per week, on Thursdays, starting from 21 July 2022. The workshops begin at 3 p.m. All workshops are 50 minutes.

All workshops are taught via Zoom.

Topics and dates:
21 July Thesis structure and planning
28 July Writing a coherent thesis
4 August Proposals (qualitative research)
11 August Literature reviews
18 August Time management

Students may attend all workshops or they participate in only those that will be relevant or helpful. To enrol, click on:
