Speaking and writing your thesis

Facilitator: Professor John Tribe

Session Overview:

PhD students devote a huge amount of time to their research methods, data collection and analysis. They are then often left to get on with the writing and sometimes completely overwhelmed by the task of compiling a thesis of 80000 words. But writing requires just as much care as the research itself. This session will discuss the elements of good writing. In fact it will encourage you to take pride in beautiful writing which is a delight to the reader. And we’ll also think about how to make your research presentations engaging too.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Reflect on and improve the writing of your PhD

2. Reflect on and improve the speaking of your PhD

This session will be recorded.
