Dissertation Bootcamp offers a more flexible schedule to adapt to the demands of working at home. In addition to the required opening and closing sessions, sign up for your choice of 5 weekly online group writing and debriefing sessions to complement writing that you do on your own. The good news: no travel time!

Weekly Schedule

Dissertation Bootcamp runs over two weeks. The launch and plenary debrief sessions are required, plus participation in at least 5 writing sessions & debriefs per week. Writing Center Fellows will be on hand for all Writing Sessions. All session times are in Eastern Time.

Registration
