Writing a Lay Summary

The College of Graduate Studies requires a lay summary for theses and dissertations. This workshop will provide writing strategies for lay summaries and examples from a range of disciplines. Although we will focus on lay summaries for theses, the strategies can also be used for writing lay summaries for scholarship applications and journal article submissions.

You are encouraged to bring questions and working drafts. Suitable for graduate students from all disciplines.
