PhD P1 - Navigating the Academic Landscape: A Deliberative Approach to Doctoral Research

Incongruent

Spill the tea - we want to hear from you!

This is the first of a multi-part series where I attempt to prepare a proposal to undertake a PhD-grade research project. I'm using two papers to help me:
Perry, C. (2002) A structured approach to presenting theses: Notes for students and their supervisors. [Online]. Accessed 12 June 2015. http://users.ugent.be/~dgosseli/Presentations/PhD-Thesis-Approach.pdf.
Shambare, R. (2019) Presenting a PhD research proposal: A guide for commerce students, African Journal of Science, Technology, Innovation and Development, 13:1, 109-123, DOI: 10.1080/20421338.2019.1638586.
The writings have all appeared in 'human hand' on my LinkedIN account, and I have used ChatGPT to rewrite this into podcast format, and then Descript to add my virtual disembodied voice.
This might not be the most exciting episode on the channel, but the series is worth listening to in case you are considering this expensive and time-consuming pathway/
