Dissertation Writing Support Program

The 2024-25 Dissertation Writing Support Program registration is now open at this link. 

Everyone is encouraged to fill out this 10 minute survey, even if you are not planning on attending DWSP events or joining the Canvas group. This survey addresses challenges and concerns that any student working on their thesis or dissertation may have, and will be taken into account by all offices involved, for future implementation in services provided to students.

About the 2024-25 Dissertation Writing Support Program

After receiving the Konneker Grant, the Dissertation Writing Retreat Planning Committee, comprised of Thesis and Dissertation Services, the Graduate College, University Libraries, the Writing Commons via the Academic Achievement Center (AAC), and Institutional Effectiveness and Analytics (IEA), have decided to revamp the former retreat into a year long support community for graduate and undergraduate writers all over campus.
