PhD Thesis Writing Group

This is a multidisciplinary writing group that aims to inspire, motivate and create a sense of community among PhD students who are in the 'writing up' stage of their PhD. There will be a facilitator but the aim of the session is for the participants to utilise the space and time to write their thesis. Each session will begin with setting goals to determine what will be written in that session and end with a review of the goals.
