Research degrees – strategies for successful part-time study
This session explores the challenges for part-time students while giving some practical solutions.
Details
While studying for a research degree shares many common features, whether you are doing it full time or part time, part-time students do face unique challenges. Part-time students are often more mature and have more complicated lives than their full time counterparts. Some are returning to study after periods of time spent doing other things, and many live geographically distant from the University, or are physically present on campus only occasionally. All share the issues inevitably associated with pursuing a research programme over an extended time period.
This session explores some of these issues and is an opportunity for part-time researchers to share their experiences, and looks at some practical strategies for successful part-time study.
Presenter: Professor Susan Brooks, Director of Researcher Development
