New National Center of Academic & Dissertation Excellence Provides Students with Support to Achieve Success As a result of listening to students to improve services, the new National Center of Academic & Dissertation Excellence (NCADE) will be available to students this fall. Under the direction of Associate Vice President Belinda McFeeters, Ph.D. the Center's mission is to support students with academic resources to enhance their coursework and scholarship and by providing assistance and guidance in the areas of Institutional Review Board support, methodology, grammar, and APA formatting and style. Prior to the creation of NCADE, writing and methodology support for dissertations was primarily provided by faculty members through classroom work and seminars led by dissertation chairs. Now, with the introduction of the NCADE, each doctoral student will be assigned a Dissertation Writing Expert (DWE) and will have access to a methodologist. This shift means that dissertation chairs have more time to mentor and support students with the academic content of dissertations and DWEs are able to assist students with the mechanics of writing, style and methodology.
