ODA stands for "Operation Dissertation Acceleration" and is designed for doctoral students who need / want to set aside a serious block of time to make a significant push toward the next step of their dissertation.
The retreat is targeted toward students who:
- Have research question(s) but have not been able to complete chapters 1, 2 and 3 (the proposal); OR
- Have defended their proposal and collected data, but have not yet completed chapters 4 and/or 5.
Retreat participants will be selected and assigned to work directly with a DSC writing adviser.
