During the Summer Term, you will be working on your dissertation (or equivalent project).

We have put together a programme of support to help you get the most out of the experience. Following on from the earlier summer workshops, the boot camps start take place every Thursday in July. The day starts with a short mini lecture on how to write the main sections of a dissertation / project and then we dedicate the rest of the day to writing. There is time to debrief at the end of the day. 1:1 appointments are available during the day.

The mini lectures cover:

  • Getting started: writing about literature
  • Writing the methodology chapter
  • Writing the findings chapter
  • Writing the discussion chapter
  • Bringing it altogether: abstracts, introductions, and conclusions

The sessions will run every Thursday online (cross-campus) in July (weeks 40-44)
