There are many reasons why it could become difficult to finish your thesis - some doctoral candidates are pressed for time, others find it hard to motivate themselves, are scared before exams or simply started to dislike their scientific work. Whatever the reasons are - it is always worth completing your PhD. when the process has advanced far already. The workshop will provide you with methods and strategies to do this.

We start with an analysis: why did you decide to write a doctoral thesis? What are the reasons that prevent you from completing it? That is the base for conveying individual strategies to enable you to finish your work.

You will learn to set obtainable sub goals, to describe accomplishable tasks and to plan the next months methodically.
