Summer Dissertation House - July 10 to 13, 2018

June 15th Application Deadline

Students who participate in this program will spend each day thinking, writing, and sharing ideas about their doctoral dissertations. Students will learn effective time-management skills; learn how to set small manageable goals, and will meet with a dissertation coach in one-on-one consultations to discuss and address obstacles that might prevent them completing their degrees.

The Dissertation House period is a Tuesday – Friday (9 a.m. – 5 p.m.) commitment to focus on the doctoral dissertation.  The Dissertation House activities focus on areas where students typically have difficulty: conceptualizing a topic, writing a literature review, transitioning from a proposal to a dissertation, analyzing data, writing the last chapter, and editing.

Hosted by the Graduate School at UMBC for UMBC students only.  Please go to their website to apply.
