Doing Phd & apply for a new PhD position?
S

Thank to all of you!
So I think I must not apply to Cambridge....
But just to tell you the group at Cambridge is also very good.
And is it really true about the one year non paid writing?

Doing Phd & apply for a new PhD position?

Hello
I started my PhD in Engineering at a University in Europe 3 months back.
The University is not so famous but the group is doing good in the research community.

Now I find an opening in the same field in Cambridge and I desperately want to apply.
Because it is Cambridge and the PhD takes one year less!

But the problem is that one of the Profs at Cambridge has some collaboration with my
current guide.

1.So should I apply risking the fact being known to my current guide?
2. If I apply should I mention my current engagement?
3. I just suppress the current engagement and apply?

Please advice. I have very little time to decide.

Thanks
SM
