The doctorate is an emotional and academic journey, filled with dilemmas and obstacles that are normal for every student. Offering a new perspective to help navigate and adjust to a new environment and culture of learning, this book seeks to answer questions like: What if my research is not up to a PhD standard?; What makes a thesis original?; What if I cannot finish the course before the stipulated 3-year period?; What kind of training do I need before commencing a PhD?. Drawn from the author’s own experience, alongside the stories of other students and graduates, the book illustrates possible solutions to the academic and emotional challenges faced by today’s PhD student.
