Going for a part time PhD is really appealing in many manners

Your PhD takes years to get complete. It will make you get connected with your university always. For that, you have to live at, or near to your university. This will make you spend most of your time there, and you have to stay away from family and friends.

As a result, you will feel more bored, disconnected, and depressed which often leads to stress and tension. If it will create so many problems then how will you succeed? Doing PHD at once is not that easy for everyone. But doing a PhD is necessary if we want real success in life.

Our blog will have a solution for those who want to enjoy doing their PhD. The solution is doing part time study. We know somehow it will not appeal you as lot of questions will come to your mind like.

1. PhD is really a big thing, how can I do it as a part time?
2. Who will assist me in part time?
3. Where will be the class rooms, the supervisors, and the research facilities?

Here are the answers

1. PhD can be easily done as part time; some universities are there providing the part time facilities for those who are working students or cannot afford to go for full-time.

2. There are part time professors who give assistance to part-time students.

3. Students can find all the facilities from the supervisors to the research tools within the universities providing part time studies.

Beside this, student can logon to internet for the related blogs and forums to discuss further regarding their studies. They can find the similar fellow being/professors there to help them as and when required.

Hence, we can say a part time study is not that insignificant as of we think about it. It will be provided with all the facilities that a fulltime student avail. Plus the student can save their time and money by not spending too much time on one thing. They won’t feel bored; can carry on with other important tasks. The only thing needed is desire and courage to go for it with a little hard work.

Blogs and forum- helping hands for PhD students

We are not superhuman so as do our supervisors. We can get brilliant writing guidance, but are unsuccessful when we reveal that we are depressed. Our supervisors can become our best friends, but sometimes fails to motivate us to put great words on the paper.

Most of the time, we felt fortunate to have a great PhD supervisor. We saw them as dutiful, expansive and exceptionally helpful. Nonetheless, supervisors are often as stressed as their students; sometimes they are disengaged and plagued by their own work. And to my surprise, worst-case scenario tells that a supervisor sometimes detests and weakens a student.

Where can we find support, if our supervisor can’t help?

Colleagues are an alternative, but online communities are doing a great job, blogs and forums are progressively more popular sources of advice. A student can take advantage from online resource that might be missing from the supervisor-student relationship.

What a blog or forums have for a PhD student?

1) Limitless realistic advice

We can find number of students/supervisors to guide us on related topics. There is endless time and unparalleled knowledge. They are always available; they are understanding and always supportive. Reason: we can find many of them and can seek help from one and another.

2) Unlimited Emotional support

Since, on an online blog or forum the number of student or supervisors is very high, so there is no lack of emotional support. Again, we can find help from one and the other. Time has no conditions. We can login any time and get supported.

3) Sincere discussion

Online communities are open for any kind of discussion which sometimes cannot be spoken in face to face with pupil or supervisors. Nobody hesitate or feel jealous describing things. No one has to do anything with another; in person. We as a student can explore beyond academia and that’s without hesitation.
