CRWR 69900 - Thesis


(3-5) Students will work one-on-one with their mentors near the end of their studies in the program for the express purpose of completing their thesis. A completed thesis is composed of three parts: creative work (100 to 200 pages for fiction or literary nonfiction, and 48 to 64 pages of poetry); a research-focused craft essay (20-40 pages); annotated bibliography (between 40 and 70 books). Students will enroll in thesis credits for the spring semester prior to their third and final summer residency. In the summer session of this final residency, students will not join their peers for the online instruction period beforehand; instead, they will enroll in 3 more thesis credits and remain focused on completing their thesis under the guidance of their mentors. During this final residency, students will not participate in the daily morning workshop sessions and may use this time to prepare an overview of their work and research in completing the thesis, culminating in a colloquium presentation at the end of the residency, which will take the place of a thesis defense. Prerequisite: CRWR 60500 - Form and Theory      Offered: Spring, Annually
