Developing your Long Term Research Plan

Whether you're working on a capstone project, a senior thesis, or taking on an in-depth research paper, it may seem overwhelming to put together an effective plan.

In this activity, you will be asked to think about your research topic or question and come up with a few concrete project goals. Then, you will learn more about the research process, what challenges and successes are to come, and several strategies to tackle your tasks!

By the end of this workshop, you'll be able to:

  • Articulate your research topic or question
  • Define your long-term research project goals
  • Break down your long-term goals into manageable tasks
