    Description

    Whether you’re a first-time researcher, just starting out and feeling a little overwhelmed by the topic ideation process - or you’re already knee-deep in the writing process but need a little guidance to ensure you’re on the right path - this short course is for you.

    Designed and presented by the award-winning team of research specialists at Grad Coach, this course provides you with a step-by-step practical guide to help develop a high-quality research topic for your dissertation, thesis or research paper. Together, we'll work through our tried and trusted topic ideation process, so that you can see exactly what it takes to find the perfect topic. Along the way, you can test your understanding with interactive pop quizzes and ask questions about each lesson as you work through the course.

    This online course is designed for both undergrad and postgrad students who are new to the academic research process. You don’t need to have any prior research experience, as we unpack each concept from the ground up. While this course is geared towards research within the sciences (especially the social sciences), the principles and concepts we’ll cover apply to the vast majority of research areas.

    Within the course, you can use the carefully designed practical exercises to identify potential topics as you work through the course. In other words, by the end of the course, you won’t just have a certificate - you’ll have a foundation for your own research topic. All that said, if you’d prefer to just focus on specific lessons, you’re most welcome to do so, as each lesson works perfectly well on a standalone basis.

    But it doesn’t stop there. By joining the course, you’ll get full, unrestricted access to our meaty collection of additional resources. This includes dissertation and thesis templates, hours upon hours of additional video lessons and webinars, as well as practical tools and resources.

    In short, this course gives you everything you need to start developing your research topic.


    Who this course is for:

    • First-time researchers completing a dissertation or thesis (undergraduate or postgraduate).
    • Students undertaking research in the social sciences (e.g., business, psychology, education, nursing, etc.).
