Synopsis

“I wrote the book I wish I’d had when I started my PhD.” Professor Woodhouse knows a thing or two about PhDs. In December 1994 he submitted his PhD after 3 years, 1 month, and it won the Best PhD thesis award from the Remote Sensing Society. As a Professor at The University of Edinburgh he has supervised more than 50 MSc and 16 PhD students to a successful thesis submission. He has also acted as external examiner for a number of PhD students, both from UK universities and world wide, including PhD candidates at universities in Finland, Australia, Canada, South Africa and the Netherlands. He has even failed a first submission at a Viva Voce as an internal examiner! Drawing on these experiences, as both a graduate student and as a supervisor, Prof Woodhouse provides a straightforward checklist of 101 key bits of advice, from how to choose a PhD in the first place, through writing the thesis, to finally getting your first job. The advice is non-disciplinary-specific, so applies to students conducting research in any field.
