HUMANITIES PHD INTERVIEW ON FRIDAY - TIPS, ADVICE?

J

Hi,

I have an interview in a drama department on Friday. They have 4 funded places, 2 arts council and 2 university studentships.

I've read a lot on this site about advise for science PhD's that already have a project - obviously for my humanities interview I have proposed my own research area.

Has anybody else had a similar PhD interview experience? I don't know if it is a panel interview or not, only that it will last 20minutes. I'm getting very stressed as this is my PERFECT university.

I'd really appreciate some advice from anybody that's been in a similar boat to me?

Thanks in advance.:-)

Hello,

For my interview, I knew my project proposal very well. (context, research questions, main objectives etc ...). They just asked me to explain what it was and why I wanted to do it, my motivations etc ...
The panel was composed of 3 member of staff. They were really friendly. We were 6 candidates for 3 scholarships.
