That’s why I like your Channel Andy.Every now and then you drop some golden advice !After 5 years trying to ´please ´ my supervisor,I decided to go rogue and just do what I want .I ´ m working on 3 different papers now and hopefully I can meet my requirements within 4 months and leave this hell hole .Hood luck to the new PhD students on this page !
Andy, I’ve been watching your videos for a long time, and they’re absolutely wonderful! I’ll be starting my PhD in November, and I’m sure some others will be starting around the same time. It would be great to see a video from you covering all the do’s and don’ts for those of us in the early stages of PhD studies. I'm a bit stressed!
Years ago I considered a PhD - but on discussing the options with the college staff I realised that I really wanted to do Product Research & Development ... designing and making things ... heavily research & academic based but in truth an engineering direction. So my first job was as Research Scientist at a major commercial research lab. Patents rather than Papers!
I'm not a Phd. I'm a researcher in the industry, and all these tips have been helping me out a lot. I wasn't aware that I was doing it. I was just trying to survive the year end reviews haha
Thank you so much Sir for this wonderful video. I am an ardent follower of your videos. Unfortunately, I have just crossed one year of my PhD and still continuing my coursework as our PhD regulation demands learning subjects not of our field which cannot be avoided. I have generated lots of data but right now after discussing with my guide but the entire work needs to be repeated again alongside my coursework. Can you guide me how to recourse my direction? Moreover, publishing papers has now become extremely hard. So, how to address these issues and how to overcome this situation?
I want to squeeze everything and handle quickly but my supervisor won’t let me in. Always waiting their response confirmation their time to talk and then weeks but no progress. Maybe I should supervise myself on my own.
Depends who counts as "top" though... Some these points could be quite circular. I like parts of this video but others just sound like "depsite everyone complaining about the flaws of academia, submit to them anyway". Not the best message if we want to improve the way things are done though practice.
@MrLethalShots Yep, those two mostly don't have data or experiments. But I have a friend who applied probability theory (a subfields of maths) to biology, and he had small stuff as experiments. But it's clearly not the majority of maths PhD, even applied maths PhD. There is also computer science (or at least many subfields of computer science) which don't use data, laboratory, or experiments

Good stuff, I start my PhD in biology in December and I got my studentship offer today so will be binging this content
Great! What is your field?
Congratulations I got my studentship yesterday too ❤ wish you luck i am sp nervous
@@takiyaazrin7562 developing a biocontrol to protect crops against a soil borne pathogen, should be good
@@farzadjahanfard well done too!
@@takiyaazrin7562 i picks cotton lol

Just got my phd studentship yesterday and my guy uploaded this love you man ❤
Andy - thank you SO MUCH for your hard work helping us do well with our PhDs. Watching your channel has given me SO MANY golden nuggets.
You are a saviour for the PhD students ❤ thank you ❤
Cheers Andy, hopefully going to start a phd in human factors on AI agents in healthcare next year. Wish me luck!
Andy, this is amazing advice! Thank you so much!❤
Andy could you please make a video on how make notes and make sense of data we have and how tidy and categorise them.

watching this instead of preparing for PhD defence next week (not elite lol)

I play hard….. perhaps it‘s time to apply for my PhD…😂
There is no data or experiment at all in my phd field
yeah what do you do for something like theoretical physics or mathematics?

prodcution oriented research
