Description

How do you logically weave together the separate parts of your thesis? How can you ensure that each chapter or paper contributes to developing your overall argument, and addresses the research question? This workshop offers structural techniques to create a clear narrative and argument for the thesis as a whole. We introduce the thesis argument map as a useful tool to help you develop a logical sequence of your ideas, and work out the structure (individual chapters) of your thesis.
