Research Writing Bootcamp: Face to face session (Multiple dates)

This research writing bootcamp is open to all UTS HDR students and faculty. 

Writing bootcamps provide a conducive environment to work on thesis chapters, research papers or any other form of academic writing. 

What don't you need to do? You don't need to commit to attending the full day session. 

What do you need to do? You should review some brief preparatory materials on Canvas that will cover the purpose of the bootcamp, outline the rules, and walk you through a short goal-setting exercise. (The prep won’t take long.)
