PHD workshop led by Dr Steve Gaskin, Head of Student Skills, University of Exeter, UK
Monday 14th December, 17:00 - 19:30
British Council Beijing Office - 4/F Landmark Building Tower 1, 8 Dongsanhuan Beilu, Beijing
A workshop for students planning to undertake PGR study in the UK, covering research proposals, finding a supervisor, funding, etc. Led by an expert in researcher development, this workshop will enable students to better understand the PhD “product” and “process”.
The session will cover a range of issues to include:
? understanding what a PhD is, and is not, and managing your expectations
? exploring the reasons why students undertake PGR study
? defining the student-supervisor relationship
? identifying what makes a good PGR candidate
? Application process and funding
The workshop will be interactive and will provide students, interested in any subject, with the
opportunity to demystify the myths surrounding PGR study and ascertain whether they would
be a suitable candidate to undertake a PhD in the UK. There will also be the opportunity to
meet with the University’s approved Education Agents to identify sources of help and support
throughout the application procedure.
