This series of workshops is designed to assist research students from any discipline to gain a clear understanding of the thesis writing process and develop essential skills required for writing a thesis. It also aims to provide a venue for thesis writers on campus to share their research and writing experiences, give and receive constructive feedback, and benefit from such intellectual sharing during their thesis writing process.
