Course Information
Description
The Thesis Analysis Seminar provides guidance on topics critical to student thesis analysis and write-up. Topics include: reminders of analysis strategies for qualitative and quantitative data; presenting research results for qualitative and quantitative data; writing an academic paper; writing an op-ed (opinion) piece for the popular press; tips for writing and reminders about grammar. Weekly writing advising allows students to get continuous feedback on their writing. Qualitative advising and advising in STATA for statistics is also available to students to supplement the academic advising and thesis advising from the program director and other faculty.
The class meets for a check-in every week on thesis progress. The class also includes several "intensive" weeks: an analysis workshop, a writing workshop in March and a thesis presentation workshop in May.
