PPS-659A Thesis/Project Workshop I

3 Credits

This course will help students prepare for the production of a final projector thesis. The class will be run as a workshop for student work, facilitated by a faculty member. Students will engage with readings relevant to their topics; examine relevant critical texts; select a thesis advisor; assemble an annotated bibliography, a precis and literature review; prepare outlines and preliminary or preparatory statements of purpose, and begin the work at hand. Instructor and peers will respond to work in progress and help the student reach the point at which they can take the project or thesis to fruition during the current or following semester.
