Ganado in Session is back just in time for students preparing to take the next academic step. This episode is dedicated to one of the most important milestones in a law students' journey: choosing a dissertation/thesis topic.

Together, they guide students through the process of identifying a field of interest, narrowing it into a focused and researchable topic, and crafting a clear and effective dissertation title.

The discussion explores 3 key considerations:

• How to choose a dissertation field without feeling locked into a lifelong career path;
• The importance of specificity and manageability when narrowing a topic; and
• Common pitfalls, including topics that are too broad or too under-researched
