I think your'e right Otto, isn't it funny that they haven't posted since you put that message up?
Yes you should apply for other PhDs just in case this one doesnt work out, though I hope this one works out for you.Some PhDs start in january so you could apply for a few PhDs that start in january 2008.
What is she doing on there anyway. It makes me sick because the physics industry is so well paid compared to life sciences. I still want to work in the field after I finnish my PhD even though the pay is pittance if I was in her shoes I wouldnt be on that show.
I agree totally. My parents just don't understand what research actually is. My dad constantly asks me 'is everything going to schedule' and when I say no, because I've had a set back or hit a block, he ask's why not, didnt you follow the protocol? and how long will it take to get back on track?, a day? a few days?
'Characterization of complex and novel mechanisms of antibiotic resistance using a proteomics approach' Starting in September.
Thanks guys
Thanks guys this is really helpful Im going to ask just to clarify.
Hi guys
Have a question for those of you that study at research institutes. Was just wondering about working hours, is it strictly 9-5 or can you come and go in the lab as you please as you can for example in academic institutions.
Thanks
It depends on where you are going to do your PhD (inside london or outside). I study outside and am currently on £12,300 per year, for inside london its £14,350. This increases anually. Usually for home students (UK) the studentship includes a stipend (figures quoted above) and payment of tuition fees. It does sound strange that your department is asking to apply for funding if you are being covered by the BBSRC award. However it could be that it is for extra funding. I would definitely ask at the department/graduate office to clarify.
Hope this helps.
I didnt go to my undergrad graduation so really want to go to my masters just for the experience and photos e.t.c
Did anyone else not go to their undergrad graduation since my dad seemed to think that my friend and I were the only people in the world not to have gone to their own graduation
Hi guys just wondering which out of the 2 you found most helpful in finding and obtainig your PhDs.
There's a girl on my MRes course who has already done a masters before this one. The reason she gives for doing 2 masters is that it is a tradition in Taiwan (where she is from).
Thanks for cheering me up. After reading golfpro's post I thought my academic life was almost certainly over since i'll only manage a measly 65+ %
So there must be a lot of computer science graduates then if your field is so competitive.
What field are you in golfpro?
