The dissertation workshop is open to doctoral students who are at the stage of developing a dissertation prospectus. The goal of the workshop is to help students build skills and develop research practices, and to provide a collaborative forum for the purpose of putting together a dissertation prospectus. Through the course of the semester, students are expected to develop a research plan and timeline, share and comment on each other's writings and research ideas, and make significant progress on writing the prospectus.

Open to graduate students in Economics only.

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
