A range of interesting opinions English isn't my first language; but I find myself inclined to agree with phd_girl.. When i started my PhD, I used to refer to myself more as a student..I guess that I got a bit carrierd away with the empirical work I am currently conducting to the point that I have actually started to believe that I am a researcher. Well, I guess the PhD is nothing but a 'licence' to carry out research; and we are now being trained to become that qualified researcher...that's my personal view anyway
Hey guys
This forum looks awsome; My first post in here..Since the majority of ppl here are on their way to get their PhD..I am just wondering what your views are regarding your current titles..
Do you prefer to be called PhD student/candidate/researcher, etc?
I personally prefer the last one. A friend of mine like to be called; a Doctoral Programme Member lol what about u?
