Hi everyone,

I'm an international student and applying for a PHD in psychology in UK.
as I understood, the first step in applying is contacting a potential supervisor and writing him/her about myself and my research interests.
I wanted to ask how detailed should I be when I write about my research interests?
Should the first email be succinct and describe in general the topics I'm interested at or should it be more detailed and include a research question and how I think it could be explored?
Thanks a lot,
Shiri
