The Realities of Completing a Ph D gives a balanced and evidence-based view of the realities of Ph D life. Full of practical tips and including a checklist to complete before sending an application, the book helps prospective Ph D students prepare for the realities of taking on a Ph D from an informed basis and offers guidance on submitting a well-planned application. This is the first book of its kind to bring together a range of international data that helps to paint a more balanced picture of the Ph D process. The book outlines different types of Ph D, how to select a topic for a Ph D, how to write a robust research proposal and application, and the realities of Ph D study in relation to student wellbeing, social commitments and employment prospects. By considering the issues raised in this book, students are less likely to be overwhelmed by the Ph D process, and better equipped to complete their award. The book will be invaluable for potential doctoral students as well as those already embarking on a Ph D. It will also enable university mentors and supervisors to consider how the application phase is key to managing student expectations, and how they can further promote a healthy and productive Ph D experience.
