Hi,
I'm new to the world of PhD's Just had my funding confirmed from the ESRC so going to be starting in the Geography dept at UCL in January - really looking forward to it but also a little worried as the two words which seem most associated with PhD are depression and disappear!! What am I letting myself in for!?

Hi TomR. Welcome to the world of procrastination!

Hi Tom,
I am doing a geography PhD at RHUL. Congratulations on the funding! There are some great geography PhD induction sessions attended by students from across the University of London. You will not be alone. Great sense of community! Are you human or physcial?

Hi Hillyg
I'm Human! Going to be looking at Environmental governance issues in Marine Conservation.

Yes looking forward to meeting lots of like-minded people!

I`m a human too!

I'm an alien! Welcome to the forum and good luck with UCL! I hear it's a very large dept so I'm sure you'll be fine and meet lots of people!
