As part of our professional development mission, the Graduate School engages the services of George Thompson, a publishing industry veteran who offers tips and techniques to navigating the publishing process, from articles to books. Meet with Mr. Thompson, discuss your work and find your path to publication.
The best teachers hone their skills by constantly questioning, adapting and embracing new ideas. The University of Alabama’s commitment to strong pedagogy led us to develop the Workshop for New Graduate Teaching Assistants. We prepare new GTAs for university instruction by developing the necessary skills to manage an upper-level classroom.
Held in May, this three-week (12-day) seminar grants dissertation writers an opportunity to make progress on their projects and improve their writing with a network of fellow researchers. Prospective participants must complete an application in the spring semester. Details will be available closer to the date with announcements released through social media and email.
