Research stage
After being admitted to the doctoral programme and concluding the thesis agreement, you will turn your attention to the main focus of your doctoral programme, i.e. writing your thesis. During the intensive study and research stage, you will have some important decisions to make and additional tasks to complete. As well as working on your thesis project, you will also focus on completing the coursework outlined in your thesis agreement.
During the research stage, it is vital that you build your network by publishing in respected journals, participating in international conferences and joining the international research community for your subject. Crucially: to overcome the challenges of doctoral study, it is essential that you maintain a good work-life balance.
