The aim of this group is to provide an opportunity for post-graduate students to meet in a supportive environment. The sessions focus on participants giving and receiving feedback at any stage of the academic writing process, from brainstorming and planning your project, through to writing and revising, as well as some time to do some writing, and a chance to connect with other post-graduate students and people doing research in Qatar. Each session will be different and you do not have to attend them all. Come along and get writing!
