Hi everyone
Thank you Sue, for explaining me different types of papers. Yes I am in social science too.
If I can bother you (and everyone) with one more question, I would like to ask you the difference between journal article and conference paper. Based on what you said it seems that both journal article and conference paper are peer reviewed and academic.
Does the paper need to be peer reviewed before submitting it in a conference or any working paper can be submitted in a conference where it gets peer reviewed?
For a journal article, the best way to get published is to email the working paper to a journal, correct?
Also, is there any other way I can build up my CV while doing my PhD?
Kind regards

Hello everyone
May be it is a stupid question but I really need to ask this,
What is the difference between conference paper, seminar paper, journal article and working paper?
Is there any other type (besides the above mentioned types) of paper that can add to my CV?
Kind regards

Hello Guys
I have an unconditional offer for PhD (Marketing) from a very good university in UK. In this university minimum period for full-time is 3 years and for part-time it is 4 years. Both my supervisors believe that I am in a very advanced stage in my research (due to my previous research work), and should be able to finish it in minimum period.
I am confused if I should do full-time or part-time PhD, help me guys?
Advantage for Full-Time: Finish in less time (3 years minimum)
Disadvantage for Full-time: Lots of Fees which I can’t pay
Advantage for Part-Time: Significantly less fees
Disadvantage for Part-time: Relatively more time (4 years minimum)
Since Part-time PhD is only one year more than full-time and it is significantly cheaper than full-time I am more inclined towards part-time. I don’t have a full-time job, so I will work full-time on my PhD even though it will be part-time. I will try to publish as many papers as I can while doing my part-time PhD.
Questions:
1. Can anyone tell me the disadvantages of part-time PhD?
2. I want to join academic career, will part-time PhD have less value than full-time PhD?
3. Will the PhD certificate have “part-time” written on it?
4. Is it possible to change part-time PhD to full-time PhD in year two or three?
Many Thanks in advance
Kind regards
