Every student knows the moment: the thesis deadline is approaching, and the pressure is mounting. Writer's block and procrastination threaten, causing the writing process to stagnate.

Each mini-workshop addresses a specific challenge: overcoming writer's block, structuring your storyline, and setting up paragraph structure. Tutors from the Writing Centre will be present during the session to answer questions about academic writing, structure, planning, and language. You can exceptionally register for one session or for all three sessions.
Benefits
Overcoming writer's block: The structured approach and regular writing time help you break through common writer's block.
Feedback and support: Access to specialists and exchange with fellow students provide valuable feedback and moral support.
Focus and productivity: Focus blocks and the stimulating environment increase your productivity and help you work more consistently on your thesis.
What is guided study?
Guided Study is a unique program of study sessions developed by the Library to support you during your studies. In addition to the thesis sessions on Mondays, you can also attend regular study sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
