Hi all,
I’m taking part in an entrepreneurial scheme at my university and I’m interested in learning more about the challenges that postgraduate students face around the research environment at their university, and how we can better solve them.
My goal is to have a conversation - via phone, Skype, or instant messenger - with 100 PG students.
I want to hear about your experiences with the university’s research environment and the training they provide. Specifically, what you find a problem. How you tackle these problems. What you love. What you hate.
If you’re willing to give me 10-15 minutes of your time, it would mean a lot to me. And you’ll be a big part of addressing the challenges you’re facing.
Plus, I’m happy to offer help with any academic issues you’re tackling. =) *
If you’re interested, just reply to this message, and I’ll send you instructions for setting up the chat.
Thanks so much.
Cheers,
K
* I’m a PhD student with plenty of experience in dealing with funding, heavy workloads, and managing supervisor relationships.
Hi all,
I'm looking to spend 10 minutes on Skype with postgraduate STEM students who feel as if their universities aren't giving them the training or teaching they need for their degree.
The results will help validate an idea I have surrounding a business. I can't talk about the idea now as I don't want to bias any responses but I'm more than happy to have a chat after the Skype for those that are interested.
As a poor postgraduate student, I don't have much to offer in the form of rewards apart from the warm feeling you'll get from doing something good.
Although, I do study leopards, and so could send an original, high-resolution, one of a kind, animal picture!!
If anyone can help, please post a reply or pm me.
Thanks
Kas
