As a graduate student, you will likely be asked to write so sort of capstone document (a thesis or dissertation). These can be extremely challenging to do, taxing yourself mentally and emotionally. To help students, we are working to organize not only graduate writing groups, but we also have the Dissertation Writers Retreat program (soon to offer resources for masters students, and PhD students working on their Prospectus)!
To learn more about the DWR program, check out the guide HERE!!!! And make sure to keep an eye on the calendar to look for upcoming Dissertation Writing events.
Also, we are working to organize Writing Groups via the Center for Writing and Communication. If you are interested in them, please contact Michael Harris for more information.
Citation Management, both keeping track of your sources and generating a bibliography, can be a huge headache for students! Luckily The UofM Libraries have you covered! The following two Guides are your keys to unlocking the resources that can help alleviate this painful part of graduate studies.
You gotta learn 'em sometime. No matter what citation style you need, the library has resources to help:
The Chicago Manual of Style (print book + online access)
Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (print book)
