Graduate students often struggle to sustain momentum during thesis and dissertation writing. This session shares findings from an IRB-approved study of master’s and doctoral students using Grammarly for Education, examining how and why they used AI tools and how their perceptions evolved over time. In addition to study results, the session highlights a three-day graduate writing workshop that intentionally integrated AI into thesis and dissertation support, offering a practical model for using AI-assisted tools to promote progress, confidence, and degree completion. #GraduateWritingSupport #AIWritingTools #DegreeCompletion
