The Realities of Completing a PhD : How to Plan for Success Hardback
by Nicholas Rowe
Part of the Routledge Research in Education series
Hardback
Description
The Realities of Completing a PhD gives a balanced and evidence-based view of the realities of PhD life.
Full of practical tips and including a checklist to complete before sending an application, the book helps prospective PhD students prepare for the realities of taking on a PhD from an informed basis and offers guidance on submitting a well-planned application.
This is the first book of its kind to bring together a range of international data that helps to paint a more balanced picture of the PhD process.
The book outlines different types of PhD, how to select a topic for a PhD, how to write a robust research proposal and application, and the realities of PhD study in relation to student wellbeing, social commitments and employment prospects.
By considering the issues raised in this book, students are less likely to be overwhelmed by the PhD process, and better equipped to complete their award.
The book will be invaluable for potential doctoral students as well as those already embarking on a PhD.
It will also enable university mentors and supervisors to consider how the application phase is key to managing student expectations, and how they can further promote a healthy and productive PhD experience.
