Book Overview
Dissertations aren't walls to scale or battles to fight; they are destinations along the path to a professional career. Destination Dissertation is a handbook that helps students successfully develop and complete their dissertations. It uses travel as a metaphor framing the process as an exciting trip of 29 steps that can be completed in less than nine months. Designed for use by students in all disciplines and for both quantitative and qualitative dissertations, the book shows concrete and efficient processes for completing those parts of the dissertation where students tend to get stuck, from conceptualizing a topic to editing the final work. It includes a wealth of real-life examples from throughout the dissertation process, such as creating the proposal and coding data. This time-tested method comes from the authors' successful work at the Denver-based Scholars' Retreat. Essential for all PhD candidates

This Book Helped Me Graduate!
Published by Kristin , 1 year ago
My advisor took a medical leave of absence halfways through my master's thesis. While my university did give me a different advisor to finish my degree program, I found I was very lost when writing my thesis. This book was a lifesaver and helped me put together my entire thesis when I had very little guidance from my (second) advisor. Highly recommend to anyone in a graduate program or anyone that is trying to publish a research article.
