Working on a thesis and stuck on something? This session is for students who want to talk through common problems with their drafts. We’ll cover things like unclear sections, awkward wording, references, formatting, and those last few changes that somehow take forever. If you’re looking for thesis help CA, bring along a question or a problem you’ve been putting off. No formal presentation, just a useful discussion with other students.
