Hovedinnhold
The 11th edition of the SV鈥檚 Supervision Forum will take place 21听September 13.15-14.15听and will focus on the topic听"Writing a coherent article-based thesis with a framing introduction".听
Initial Speaker: Brita Ytre-Arne听(Dep. of Information Science and Media 大象传媒)
Many PhD candidates have questions about the 鈥渒appe鈥 鈥 or the framing introduction, formerly known as the final contribution 鈥 in an article-based thesis. The framing introduction seems a bit mysterious, and working on it tends to bring up difficult questions about how all the different parts in the thesis relate to each other. In this supervision forum, professor Brita Ytre-Arne will give a short talk based on a recurring workshop for PhD candidates at InfoMedia, about how to write a framing introduction. Starting from the questions candidates struggle with, the idea is to discuss how supervisors can help, building on the understanding that the framing introduction is essential to produce a consistent thesis. 听

The seminar will be held in English.
