Workshop | Destination Dissertation: Practical Strategies for Writing the Thesis or DissertationPresenters: Sonja K. Foss, Professor, Department of Communication, University of Colorado Denver & William Waters, Assistant Professor of English, University of Houston-Downtown Designed for master's and doctoral students, this workshop facilitates your progress on the journey that is the dissertation or thesis. In the workshop, writing a dissertation or thesis is presented as taking a trip—you are on vacation from normal routine for a fixed amount of time, you discover exciting things and develop new skills, and you know you'll be able to deal with whatever comes your way. The workshop focuses on those places where you tend to get delayed on your dissertation or thesis journey and provides practical and concrete processes for managing potential difficulties with ease.
