WRTG-7021: Conceptualizing the Dissertation Inquiry and Research

In this course, students will initiate their dissertation research proposal, moving from the hazy germ of an idea to a focused statement of inquiry. Biweekly sessions will help students down research questions, select appropriate methodologies, research and report on relevant literature, and organize and share findings while following APA style guidelines. Students should expect to write and to share their works in progress, with the goals of experimenting with initial drafts, revising work after receiving feedback, and becoming more proficient at the research-writing process. The class will also address best practices of self-discipline for long-term research and writing projects. Students should conclude the quarter with a greater understanding of the general process of inquiry, research, and writing, in preparation for the Dissertation Prospectus and Proposal seminars and writing workshops.
