Research process seminars are back. Starting with ‘the how’s and why’s of writing research monographs’

Uncategorized

We are delighted to invite you to the first of this years’ research process seminars. Hosted in FMC but open to all.
We’ve got a great lineup of talks coming your way, featuring a mix of internal and external colleagues, with different disciplinary and methodological influences.
For those of you unfamiliar with them, they are 60 min research seminars focussed on the process of doing research – often research methods but also including publishing, writing, time management etc. The idea here is that the speaker takes us through the anatomy of the project focussing particularly on the process – the challenges, the successes, and the failures. For the audience, we walk away with a practical application of a method or approach we may not be familiar with or may not have applied in this way before. Our ambition is to make us all better researchers as a result.
Presentations are typically 30 mins followed by 30 mins Q&A. They are always a friendly and informal atmosphere.
This week’s session is on book publishing. We are delighted to welcome FMC colleagues Darren Lilleker and Chris Pullen, who collectively have published 10 research monographs.
Please note the start time of 3pm (our standard start time is 2pm on Tuesdays)
Tuesday 9 November at 3pm

Prof Darren Lilleker and Dr Chris Pullen

The how’s and why’s of writing research monographs

Why write monographs? What makes a good research monograph? And what is the process of writing a book? In this session, Darren Lilleker and Chris Pullen – together responsible for 10 monographs – will talk about their experiences of writing monographs. From the big ideas that drive the project, to the minor details that make the difference, Darren and Chris will share their knowledge, experiences and top tips of book publishing. This talk will be of interest to anyone with ambitions to write a monograph, or who is in the early stages of writing one.
We look forward to seeing you there!
