Finish it! How to finalise Your Dissertation
Inhalte
Between 30 and 50 percent of all doctoral researchers in Germany do not finish their theses. There are many reasons for that, but most of them can be eliminated. In this workshop you will learn how to focus on finishing your dissertation as early as possible. The workshop covers the following topics:
- Planning and goal setting: Why is it so important to set smart goals? How do you plan your time efficiently? Why do long-term plans often not work, but it still makes sense to have them? And how can you turn a long-term plan into structured action in everyday life?
- The writing process: How can writing the dissertation or the individual publications be tackled early enough? How can you structure your writing process? How can you overcome writer’s blocks?
- Motivation and procrastination: Where to get the motivation to finish? What demotivates and blocks you? What solutions are there to deal with motivation blocks and procrastination?
- Unclear expectations: What do you yourself and what do your supervisors expect from the dissertation? How can expectations be clarified and communicated?
- Planning and preparing your next steps: What are your next tasks and steps and what do you need to complete them successfully?
