GSA Thesis Bootcamp

University of Melbourne Burnley Campus

  • For all graduate researchers

GSA's Thesis Bootcamp returns in April 2018 for a special event, hosted at Burnley Campus.

Break writer's block, stomp procrastination and enjoy the beauty of the botanical Burnley Gardens situated in Richmond. Thesis Bootcamp is a three-day weekend (3:00pm-7:00pm) of intensive writing with other grad students. You'll thank yourself later.

But it's not all hard work – it includes pampering, motivational talks, goal setting, strategies for writing productively and for breaking fatigue and writer’s block. Support staff will be on hand and catering will be provided to ensure an encouraging, distraction-free environment.

GSA Bootcamps are highly successful in motivating students and giving them the tools and support to stay productive. On average, students write 11,000 words and one memorable occasion, a student at a boot camp wrote 25,000 words. GSA helped students write over 1 million words in 2017.

Applications close Sunday 18 March. Limited to 30 places.

Please note: this Bootcamp does NOT involve overnight stay.
