Looking to use your summer productively, but aren't sure where to start? Need a primer on resources available to you as a GradTerp? Join the Graduate School on May 23-24 in Stamp Student Union for networking and interactive, hands-on sessions to help you make this summer count! Our program features three tracks: Academic Success, Wellness, and Career & Professional Development, but participants can mix and match to best meet their needs and interests. Join us for one or both days!
This retreat is designed specifically for students who are BEGINNING the process of writing their dissertations (depending on your program, that likely means you recently received approval for your proposed topic, but you MUST be ready to write). In this retreat, graduate students will identify and practice strategies for effective writing productivity, work on an individualized plan for writing and degree completion, have the opportunity to meet with a subject area librarian, build a peer writing support community, and, of course, spend time writing.
The Thesis & Dissertation Retreat will afford participants time to write along with opportunities for one-on-one consultations about their writing with Graduate School Writing Center Fellows, presentations about setting goals, structuring writing time, and addressing obstacles that may complicate progress toward completion. Participants must have an approved prospectus or thesis topic and must commit to attending each day.
