Episode 8 - The dissertation: managing your research project


Episode 008 - The dissertation: managing your research project 

Welcome back to the LSE LIFE podcasts series! I'm Helen Green, and I’ll be sharing some ideas on one particular aspect of studying at LSE.

In today’s podcast, I’ll shift my attention away from the dissertation as a written piece of work that you’ll hand in – and talk more about the actual research project that you’ll carry out for the dissertation. The issues I’d like to talk about are developing specific research questions, and creating a viable research plan.
