Dear colleagues;

We are organizing a series of professional development workshops for
PhD students at London Centre for Social Studies in London.

The PDW series are open to graduate students or researchers from all
universities, disciplines and departments.The goal of these workshops
is to provide graduate students the vision, the knowledge, and
relevant resources to develop professional and practical skills on
topics such as academic writing, publishing, conducting research,
thesis writing, career management, teaching, and more. If requested, a
certificate of the programme will be given to those who attend at
least four of the PDW sessions.

This Sunday, we will have our fifth workshop on conducting, writing
and finishing your dissertation research. We will discuss practical
steps, as well as challenges, on the path of dissertation.
