FGR "The lifecycle of the PhD" Online
This online workshop introduces you to the stages of a typical PhD. You will learn how to navigate the various stages and be provided with tools to help you plan and stay on track.
You will learn key habits that will make a difference to how quickly and easily you complete your PhD. Just as importantly, these habits can greatly reduce the stress and increase the pleasure involved in completing a research degree. Topics covered:
- how you deal with your supervisor
- how you structure your study time
- your attitude (or lack thereof!) in relation to your research
- dealing with writer’s block or having difficulty writing
- getting the help you need when you are stuck
- juggling multiple commitments and never having enough time
- keeping on going when the going gets tough
We highly encourage you to also attend our Doctoral Induction which complements this workshop well.
