This course provides a sequence of seminars during the two half-sessions. Each seminar is designed to provide a wide range of substantive learning experiences and opportunities to gain practical research skills. During the course, students will continue to build their PhD dissertation in alignment with their research project. At the end of the second half-session, the students will be expected to present the findings of their second year of research, to explore new findings and discoveries made in that research, and to present on a chapter from their dissertation.
Expected Seminar Topics to be Potentially Covered, depending on staff availability:
The course will also feature a weekly pastoral session to check on various PGR activities and needs while they progress through the First Year PGR Program to better ensure optimal study progress and health and safety issues.
Information on contact teaching time is available from the course guide.
