The dissertation is one of the most pivotal components of doctoral programs in higher education.  Yet, this is the obstacle that doctoral students have the most difficulty overcoming. This workshop will present proven strategies for mapping out a dissertation completion plan in any discipline. Workshop participants will learn how to develop relational success with the dissertation chair and committee, identify and delimit the dissertation topic, undertake a disciplined approach to the review of literature and become familiar with the essential chapter development of the dissertation. The workshop program will share specific academic practices that successful doctoral students employed to complete their dissertations on time.

In preparation for the course, students should read this article: "Contemporary Issues In Education Research – July 2010 Volume 3, Number 7 1 "Getting To Finished: Strategies To Ensure Completion Of The Doctoral Dissertation"
