Hi all,
This is my first post and I come to seek advice on how I should approach my main supervisor about the infinite changes being made on my research, every time I have a meeting with both of my supervisors together.
I'm about to submit my first year's report to be upgraded to PhD status, and I still haven't managed to identify my research grounds, as I keep jumping from one area to another due to the advises I get from both supervisors. I want to know how can I approach my main supervisor and let himknow that I need to stick with one area that I can search in depth instead of touching the surface of multiple areas.
I'd like to mention that my second supervisor is great with the advises they provide, it's just that he started his supervision at the end of my first year, so they aren't fully aware of my research direction. And I honestly don't like the approach he's taking, as I don't have the background or knowledge of the area I'm being dragged into.
Many thanks,
Zd_Nomad
