The Dissertation House is one of the feature stories on UMBC’s website today! The feature shares news of the new paper that has been published by CBE Life Sciences Education.

The 2016 PROMISE Summer Success Institute also held a Dissertation House at the Hotel at Arundel Mills this past weekend. Here are some of the tweets from the Dissertation House and its surrounding events, e.g., mentoring for “Gentlemen of Graduate School,” “Sisters in the Dissertation House,” “Dissertation House ‘after’ breakfast.”
