Welcome to Gateway University’s Dissertation Foundations: Preparing for Doctoral Research!

Doctoral programs are a journey of transformation and achievement, consisting of two core components:

  1. The Coursework: Designed to hone your critical thinking, academic writing, and subject matter expertise.
  2. The Dissertation: A culmination of your doctoral journey, where you demonstrate your capabilities as a scholar.

This course bridges the gap between coursework and dissertation writing, providing a clear roadmap for success. You’ll gain a deep understanding of the dissertation process, including its structure, research methodologies, proposal defense, and final publication. Along the way, the handbook and class sessions will serve as valuable tools to guide your academic journey.

Prepare to explore, grow, and excel! We’re here to help you every step of the way.
