The primary aim of Dissertation Boot Camp (DBC) is for you to write and to make substantial headway on your thesis. To achieve this goal, you’ll spend the majority of your time writing, with breaks for snacks, lunch, and structured group discussions about topics relevant to thesis writers. All this in a distraction free environment (if in-person) or in your own home.
It is important to meet with your supervisor prior to the DBC to plan your goals for the time period of the camp.
Due to limited available spaces for the in-person event, SGSPA will contact successful participants once the selection committee has reviewed all applications. Priority will be given to doctoral and master’s students nearing completion. Others will be placed on a waitlist for an in-person spot, but are still encouraged to participate online.
