Thinking of Doing a PhD? Panel
Wed 5 Jun 2024 2:00 PM BST
Online, MS Teams
Description
At the University of Westminster, we recognise that applying for a PhD can be a very mysterious process. From choosing a topic, a university, or a supervisor, to writing a PhD proposal, doing an interview, or embarking on independent research – it can be an overwhelming process to get your head around, and one where it can seem like everyone else knows the rules, but no one is telling. This mysteriousness can be particularly daunting for those from backgrounds underrepresented in doctoral study who may have been the first in their family to do an undergraduate degree.
This panel will pull the curtain away from applying for and doing a PhD. You will hear from our panel of current PhD Students at the University of Westminster, together with members of the PhD Alumni Community, about their experiences and, more importantly, have a chance to ask them questions.
The panel is for all those thinking of doing a PhD – masters students at the University of Westminster, those elsewhere in the UK thinking of doctoral study, and those around the world considering a PhD in the UK.
Information about our panellists will be announced shortly.
