Publishing my MSc dissertation.
I

Thanks for your reply. I am still not certain if the ownership of the dissertation belongs to me or not. I have little experience in UK universities.

I wanted to be certain that what I submitted for publication wouldn't be an issue with my previous university as they may claim ownership of my dissertation.

Does anyone know what are the normal policies on this matter?



Publishing my MSc dissertation.
I

Hi everyone,

I had finally been able to complete the manuscript for my MSc dissertation for publication.

I have an issue that I did not consider earlier. I am currently undertaking my PhD in different University from where my MSc dissertation was written (University of Brighton). I did mention in the paper that the study was conducted in Brighton in the affiliations section. However, I am unsure if this is sufficient or there are any regulations I am not familiar with that may cause a conflict between myself and my previous University.

I would appreciate your opinions and comments regarding this matter.

Many thanks in advance.

Brunel or Bath?

Thanks Pam,

I do agree that Bath is a wonderful historical place.

Quote From sneaks:

I grew up near bath and went to college there. It is a wonderful city - i would definitely recommend it. Brunel (I've only been there once for 3 hours) I found very bleak and a bit of a pain to get to and from central london (although I suppose bath is no better, but at least you have a ton of shops on your doorstep and Brizzle close by).

Not too sure about who's best for sport, but i know bath have a great reputation - don't they have a football team in the leagues?


Hi Sneaks,

Thanks for your reply.

Bath is higher in ranking than Brunel in sport. However, I suffered from other factors other than simple ranking system when I was undertaking my MSc at Brighton. For example, there was no support from the faculty leaving me with a feeling of alienation throughout my course.

I need to seek more advice when it comes to research training and support, studying environment, accommodation etc.

Hello everyone,

I am going to begin my PhD journey next January in Sports Science/Exercise Physiology. I managed to obtain unconditional offers from Brunel University and the University of Bath. I have been trying to gather the pros and cons of each University in hopes to reaching a decision to where my destination should be.


Any opinions and/or advice would be immensely appreciated.
