Thanks very much brit27! And did you do a full time or part time PhD? Was it difficult trying to find time to do your own work as well as the work for the research centre, or did they overlap somewhat?

Hi there

Can't seem to find an answer anywhere for this.... How does a graduate research assistant do his/her own phd aswel?
If you are working on a project for someone, then surely you can't do your phd on that same topic.....or is it a case that you choose a side tangent of the main project and do your phd on that?

Thanks!

Hi there!

I have been talking to a "Senior research fellow" at my old university. I told him I was looking to do a phd and asked if he could help. He said there was a funded project comming up soon and that I could join the research team.

I don't fully understand this though. If I will be working on a project with a bunch of other people, surely I can't just go ahead and write up my own phd on that project? Or is it the case that I pick a specific niche area in this project and do my phd on this???

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Hey guys,

A person in my university says he can get me in with a funded project that this company is undertaking and says I can get a research phd this way.
Can anyone tell me how this works? If I'm working for this company on their project, surley I can't just take their project and write up a phd of my own using their idea and research??

Thanks guys!
