Precise planning is key to ensuring that your dissertation project proceeds smoothly and is completed successfully. This is why students write an exposé during the introductory stage of the doctoral programme. It should be written within your first year of study (i.e., during your first two semesters). Before writing the exposé, find out about the specific requirements specified by the doctorate advisory committee responsible for your dissertation area.
