another idea: do you think that would be achievable if i was doing my phd part time?

hello,
well the other course is completely different actually... i wanna do a phd since im interested in the subject, but then, im not really sure i wanna be a lecturer all my life which seems to be the main objective with a phd (about that, what is a postgrad degree in teaching? i thought the phd was enough to teach in England?). im really interested in doing it and writing about my topic, but the other course would allow me to do more jobs in the future and id like to keep my options open. i dont know if thats possible but well...

hmm that's pretty complicated! well i'm doing a media studies/gender studies phd so I wouldn'have to be in a lab or anything, according to my supervisor it wouldn't actuallt matters if I didn't live in the same country while doing it... so at first I was thinking I could do both, start my phd, doing the other degree next year and then concentrate on my phd again, but i probably won't have as much time to concentrate on the phd for a year, and since it's pretty expensive I thought the best solution was to just "pause" it... i guess i'll have to ckeck with newcaslte university how things could work out!

hi i have a question that might sound silly, but i'm french and not very sure of how it works in England! i'm about to start a phd and was wondering if it had to be done during 3 or more consecutive years???
like, can you start for a year, then decide to put it on hold for a year and go back to doing it afterwards? would you have to pay for the fees anyway?

i'm about to start my phd in Newcastle, but i was also thinking of doing a postgrad degree in france next year, my supervisor said i could live in france while doing my phd here in theory, but i'm not sure i can commit to both degrees at the same time. so i was thinking maybe i could start my phd this year, then put it on hold the time to complete my French degree next year?

thanks a lot for your answers
