Hi to everyone
I want to thank everyone for taking the time to reply to my post, its being so helpful.
I would have to take on a funded Ph D as they will only give funding if its full-time. I had worked out I could make available around 37 hours per week but I am really thinking about all your comments.
You are all great and any other comments please email me, they are all so helpful to me.
Thanks all
Hi
Has anyone done or doing a PhD and if so I would love to hear from them about what level of class attendance and how much is independent study.
I would love to do a PhD but don't know if I should wait until kids in school to do it. I have a three year old and if we can get our finances sorted hopefully a second child. I would be able to organise part time childcare for them and my plan would be to work mornings and evenings when kids sleeping.
I would love any advice
Thanks
Hi to all
I would really appreciate some advice, I am currently doing some parttime lecturing but I am seriously considering doing a PhD.
I have a three year old and think that doing a PhD will give me more of a flexibility over the next 3 years. I am thinking that I will have to work hard but will also be able to take breaks when needed for playschool etc. I also see that it would give me a better chance of securing better employment as the current job is paid very poorly.
Please give some advice on the level of commitment and hours taken per week over the three years.
Any help is much appreciated.
Best regards
Cel
