SKIL 8015 - Doctoral Writing Workshop: Revising and Editing the Proposal

(0 credits)

Doctoral students who have begun the development of their dissertation, project, or doctoral study proposal but find themselves needing writing guidance and support should take this small-group workshop. With the assistance of the writing faculty member, students will spend 6 weeks advancing their proposal through tailored one-on-one writing instruction and supportive group work with their peers. They will get to know the required components of the proposal and have an opportunity to learn how to address common writing issues, such as APA, citing and referencing sources, clarity and concision, and writer's block. Importantly, the instruction and feedback students receive will be anchored in their own work. In addition to a further developed proposal, at the end of the workshop, students will have a tailored plan based on their specific needs to ensure that they can continue to make progress on their draft.
