Founder and Creative Strategist
Dr. Hilroy Thomas is Professor Emeritus at St Thomas University, Miami, Florida, where he led many online (including doctoral) programs for several years. His work in the use of digital technology preceded St. Thomas. As an early adopter, he developed unique digital learning programs (including one in law, several “Degree Completions”, Masters, and doctoral programs, online).
Throughout, he closely observed the attitudes of his doctoral students toward writing the doctoral dissertation. This led him to the stack realization that attrition rates among doctoral students were consistently and astronomically high, and intricately tied to writing the doctoral dissertation!
Now, to the original story that connects Dr. Thomas to Dissertation Writing. He started coaching graduate students on how to write their doctoral dissertations while completing his own doctorate in the School of Education at Harvard University. During that period, he worked with students from different disciplines, focusing primarily on data collection, analysis, and the reporting sections of their doctoral dissertations. Later, as he worked with international organizations worldwide, he continued to meet and help doctoral students working on their dissertations.
While experimenting with techniques to enhance the graduation rates of his doctoral students at St. Thomas University, Dr. Thomas discovered that creating a type of learning environment that pro-actively supports the dissertation writing process of adult learners could significantly increase their graduation rates and their time to completion. Hence, the Dissertation Writing Network and WriteDis are the results of this creative vision that started years ago at Harvard!
WriteDis and the Dissertation Writing Network are focused on the explicit needs of doctoral students — enhanced and value-added dissertation writing experiences, higher completion rates, and efficiencies that reduce their time to completion and associated costs. Today, Dr. Thomas is at the forefront of getting doctoral students across the finish line with their doctorates in hand.
Meet the Dissertation Writing Network
The WriteDis Info-G Steps to a Successful Doctoral Dissertation was designed by the Dissertation Writing Network.
Collectively, the Network comprises university program leaders, dissertation managers, directors, professors, researchers, editors, statistical analysts, and consultants.
Every member of our Network holds a doctorate or advanced degree from a regionally accredited institution. We present a rich academic and culturally diverse team of educators from a variety of disciplines and specializations, with many years of academic and professional experience.
We have a thorough understanding of the dissertation writing process and have guided hundreds of candidates through each and every step of the dissertation writing process to earn their doctorate.
Facts on Completion Rates of a Doctorate
Did you know that the majority of doctoral students do not finish their programs, and the biggest obstacle is writing a doctoral dissertation?
Furthermore, a large number of those who finish will take a very long time, sometimes up to ten years. Many doctoral students simply walk away instead of writing the dissertation. And here are the facts on the attrition and completion rates for the doctorate!
- Most experts agree that the dissertation is the biggest obstacle to earning that doctoral degree.
- About 50% of the US students who start a doctoral program never finish.
- Dissertation writing is one of the most challenging activities any individual may ever face in his or her lifetime.
- Even the most talented doctoral students find that they are often under-prepared for the challenges of writing their dissertations.
- For most doctoral students, completing the academic coursework is easy; writing the dissertation is not!
- Although they have the academic ability to succeed, of those who graduate, less than 25% of doctoral students finish the doctorate in 5 years; 45% finish in 7.
- Overall, attrition in U.S. doctoral degree programs is more than 50%.
- In the US, attrition is highest in the humanities, with only 12% complete within five years.
- Within 10 years, the completion rate for engineering is 64%, life sciences (63%), social sciences (56%), math and physical sciences (55%), and humanities, (49%).
- WriteDis Seminars remove the mystery in writing a doctoral dissertation.
