Seminar by David Wadley on how to successfully complete a research thesis

 Agenda:This interactive seminar will be quite informal and highly pragmatic. It aims to offer some new angles from project management which can help those who are intending to write, or are currently completing, a research thesis. Emphasis will be placed on initial aspects (project scope, initiation and risk management) which can condition the entire thesis exercise. A little writing will be involved. Participants will be invited to comment on the presentation and offer their own experiences for general contemplation.
