Hello, I posted a while ago when I was unsure about undertaking a PHD. Well...... Ive been thinking about it now weighing up pros and cons and Im going for it. I'm not sure what to expect however i do expect it will be frustrating and hard work! I will have opportunities to teach as well which should be good. Overall I just want to say I'm excited at this prospect!! and Im glad to be one of you guys! I hope all goes well and I hope all is going well for you guys and hopefully you will be hearing from be a lot more as Im sure il be looking for some advice!
I have experienced a lot of negative stigma for my choice already as people see it as a return to uni but how can it be a cop out to go back and study at the highest academic level!? I look forward to this challenge! (up)
