The 'Insider Guides to Success in Academia' offers support and
practical advice to doctoral students and early-career researchers.
Covering the topics that really matter, but which often get
overlooked, this indispensable series provides practical and
realistic guidance to address many of the needs and challenges of
trying to operate, and remain, in academia. These neat pocket
guides fill specific and significant gaps in current literature.
Each book offers insider perspectives on the often implicit rules
of the game -- the things you need to know but usually aren't told
by institutional postgraduate support, researcher development
units, or supervisors -- and will address a practical topic that is
key to career progression. They are essential reading for doctoral
students, early-career researchers, supervisors, mentors, or anyone
looking to launch or maintain their career in academia. This book
is a toolbox for PhD students to plan and prepare for the PhD
defence regardless of their scientific discipline or location. The
authors discuss various defence formats that are used
internationally and identify the main differences and similarities.
With international examples, practical strategies, and tips from
former PhD students and supervisors, this book unpacks the
principles and unwritten rules underpinning the defence. Addressing
planning and preparing for the doctoral defence, and what to do
afterwards, this book covers topics such as: understanding your
defence format preparing for committee questions preparing mentally
and dealing with anxiety dealing with corrections, finalizing your
graduation requirements and marking the end of your PhD trajectory.
This book is crucial reading for students across the world looking
to defend their PhD thesis, and also for their supervisors and
examiners.
