Publication day is today! We've written this book for doctoral students who (like me) navigated their studies off campus. Very grateful to all the doctoral students who contributed their stories and insights to the book!
16 May 2024
Emerging from personal experience and empirical research, this book is a key companion text for doctoral students from a range of research fields and geographical contexts who are undertaking off-campus, hybrid, and remote pathways. Out now! routledge.com/Doing-Doctoral…

Sharing this piece written by our #PADC_project team which seeks to map pre-application doctoral communications (PADC) between prospective applicants & HE staff members. We focus on who is involved, how they communicate, and what topics are in focus.
