The Dissertation Process: Getting Started
The Dissertation process can be stimulating and rewarding. This culminating experience in your doctoral work involves scholarly skills as well as perseverance. The Dissertation Support Office provides students and faculty with resources and assistance in meeting both methodological and style guidelines. Assistance is also available to faculty and students in the preparation of IRB submissions.
A note about plagiarism: Plagiarism is commonly understood in the academic community to involve taking the ideas or words of another and passing them off as one's own. When paraphrasing or quoting an author directly, one must credit the source appropriately. Plagiarism is not tolerated at the Graduate School of Education and Psychology.
