Event Description 

Attention master’s students in the humanities and social sciences! This workshop will prepare participants to begin their projects with practical exercises focused on entering academic conversation, gathering resources, and streamlining the writing process. We will also discuss the various components of the thesis and how to choose a topic, conduct a literature review, and begin chapter writing. We will also briefly cover the IRB process. This is a great chance to gain some thesis-writing skills before deadlines later this semester!
