This maiden voyage workshop is sponsored by the EAPA Research Sub-committee and will feature summary presentations of doctoral dissertations relevant to the field. A panel of three researchers will be invited to discuss their respective projects (15-20 minutes). Attendees will learn about cutting edge research and the importance of EAP related dissertations to the field. Ideally, provocative discussion among the panelists and the audience will encourage others to embark on their own doctoral journeys.
