Dissertation Boot Camp

The Graduate School is pleased to announce the return of our Summer Dissertation Boot Camps.

Dissertation Boot Camps are designed to help you make significant progress on your dissertation in a focused, supportive environment. They provide a distraction-free space for intensive writing and goal setting, as well as opportunities for individual coaching from writing consultants and, of course, plenty of food and drinks.

Our Dissertation Boot Camps are designed for advanced doctoral students who:

  • Are moving forward with an approved dissertation topic
  • Are well into their dissertation research
  • Are actively writing
  • Are willing to minimize distractions and commit to focused writing time

Apply Now: Our next Boot Camp series will be held in Summer 2026. Check back on May 1, 2026 for more details. 

Space is limited. Our boot camps are typically capped at 12 doctoral students, and participants must commit to attending all days of the session in full.
