Day 1 of the PhD Thesis Bootcamp at the School of Graduate Studies (SGS), University of Ghana, took place with a vibrant and supportive atmosphere aimed at helping doctoral candidates advance their thesis writing. This recurring bootcamp event focuses on encouraging students who feel stuck or challenged in their research writing, providing them with practical guidance and motivational support. The event was expertly managed by Mrs. Esi Benyiwa Idan Osam Doe-Sallah, Assistant Registrar and Head of the Thesis Office, alongside Prof. Patrick Amoateng, Vice-Dean of SGS, serving as the masters of ceremonies.
The day featured an inspiring screening of "From Thesis to Publication," a video presentation by Heiko L. Schoenfuss, PhD, U.S. Fulbright Scholar, which offered insightful advice on navigating the transition from thesis writing to scholarly publication. This resource provided attendees with clear strategies and motivation to overcome common academic hurdles and finish their doctoral journey successfully.
