The PhD Handbook: How to Take Care of Yourself, Your Research Project and Your Future - Rosemary Doyle - Bog

This book is based on courses that have been designed, developed and delivered by the authors, as such it would be a companion guide to CPD training courses that Fistral run for 1,000s of students per year. In addition, the text is relevant to any student or individual undertaking a doctoral level research project regardless of their engagement with a specific academic or training programme.The book functions as a companion guide for PhD students throughout their research project. Structured in three parts (Starting Your PhD; Doing Your PhD; Finishing Your PhD), it supports them from the early days of the PhD through to completion and beyond. It addresses how they can best deal with the demands of each phase of the PhD and provides ways of handling some of the common problems many PhD students face.With each chapter subtitled "How to...", it will be practical and applicable in style and will function as an easy, quick-reference handbook, providing not just guidance and information but engaging techniques and tips, worksheets, activities, and a wealth of illustrative examples and vignettes from other PhD students.
