When we have a room it would be great if you could share this with supervisors within your divisions to encourage doctoral students to attend. Thank you, Ines B. ________ Hi everyone, The thesis writing workshop led by Rowena Murray has been booked for Friday the 13th of June from 10 to 4 pm (following the PhD conference). Rowena is an expert on doctoral research writing, writing for publications and viva preparation, so her insights will be very helpful for your thesis writing. This is a practical workshop, involving various writing activities and discussions that can be useful at different stages in writing a thesis. Topics we will cover in this course include writing to prompts for drafts and chapters, criteria for assessing a thesis, analysing academic writing, strategies for generating text, outlining, revising, social writing, making time to write, constructing a ‘contribution’ argument for your thesis, writing a 750-word thesis summary and building a repertoire or ‘tool kit’ of productive strategies for thesis writing and for other ways of writing about research for other audiences and purposes. This course involves short writing activities, all designed to help you develop your thesis and to get into the writing habit. By signing up to this course you agree to do the writing tasks and to talk about your writing in small-group discussions, to give and receive feedback on writing and to discuss your writing plans and goals. Key reference: Murray, R. (2025) How to Write a Thesis, 5th edition. Maidenhead: Open University Press-McGraw-Hill We will circulate a Teams invite shortly, please make sure that you indicate your availability (accept/reject) so we know about numbers for Rowena to organise the day.
