Thesis/Dissertation Workshops
The Thesis/Dissertation Workshop is presented twice, early in each semester (normally January, June and September). Flyers will be posted with the date, time, and location of the workshops. The workshop will provide general guidelines for proper formatting of theses and dissertations, as well as steps for submittal. The workshops, held in cooperation with the Office of Information Technology (OIT), will also touch on techniques for the better use of Word to prepare theses and dissertations, as well as converting documents to PDF.
The workshops are not meant to substitute for a consultation with the
thesis/dissertation consultant. Students will still need to schedule
meetings with the consultant to go over specific formatting requirements
for the individual documents. The workshops can make the consulting
process go more smoothly, however, by giving students a head start on
formatting. Please also see our Thesis/Dissertation Resources
page for samples, guidelines and technical tips.
Upcoming Workshops:
A night and an afternoon session of the thesis/dissertation workshop will be held this fall:
