What Diferent Betweenextract And Concentrate



About a year ago today I was at home, after three (sad) months without giving a stick to water, waiting for my acceptance to the doctoral program. I knew it would not be me. If I accept, fine, but if not ... Tomorrow

return to my home again and remembering that time I think of those who now are in that situation of not knowing what will happen to your life. I do not know if he ever will to anyone, but here are my tips for recent graduates who want to start a PhD.

  1. Patience. Patience now you do not know if you accept and patience when you have accepted. The bureaucracy, queues, scholarships, validations ... everything will be slow and tedious, without a doubt our best weapon is patience.
  2. not waste your time. PhD courses will be more or less hard, depends on many things, but in any case, he starts working on you. I have not done this year and I repent. Begins as soon as possible to define your research topic. Make a report describing and present it to whom you want to be your director. As soon as possible start with it, the better.
  3. Seeking funding, but do not be discouraged if you do not have scholarships. I am the best example. I paid my first 6 months of doctoral credit and although I have no scholarship, I made it into a research group with a good salary. If you show interest and you approach your classmates and teachers, a "train" pass.
  4. That said, do not be mortgaged by the thesis. If you do not see support from your faculty or department, plantéatelo again. I luckily I've found with this situation. If you're halfway to the DEA, at least finish it.
  5. Make friends with the secretariat Department and the Faculty. Mandan much (or more) than professors, even if they seem.
  6. 've decided to do a PhD, so get to read and, although general notes of the race. You probably have a weaker theoretical basis than you think.
  7. socialize and share things with your classmates. A good conversation with another doctor can be very useful for raising spirits, discovering new authors, receive constructive criticism or have new ideas.
  8. Keep in touch with the "outside world." Maintain contact with fellow graduate or practices that chief no evil shall come in the future. You never know ... Lee
  9. you can fall Umberto Eco better or worse, but his book is quite interesting for those who started the argument.
  10. Write every day. Although a summary of what you read in an article. Even pass notes to clean. Although a reference found by chance and it sounds interesting. Although there are three (sad) lines in a blog.

How to write a thesis ...

a working day in the thesis:

begin to make something of literature, so low to the library and grab three books. From way out in one of the cars, I find this:



is not the first time I saw him. In fact, had once cast a glance at any chapter, but I admit that despite having one year enrolled as a doctoral student, had not yet read. Total

, I'll take it along with the other three. Failure or success, do not know. The fact is that these days my productivity has been at fault = zero.

last night until 3 am reading. And today, anyway. Not that this is the best book that has passed through my hands, but do not understand how I had stopped by to read it, is entertaining and very basic if it is to write a thesis in the field of humanities / social science.

I liked a phrase that has to do with what I said yesterday:

is not so important the subject of the thesis and work experience that entails.
Umberto Eco, How to do a thesis .-

guess it's a good way to start the dissertation. Tomorrow if I take a while still counting the Summer School ...

And finally, it.

Today I had a meeting with my boss (research group). Indeed, in the end it will be my thesis supervisor.



[FLASHBACK]

consider that she offered me curro mid-year when I was I Ph.D. paying my savings and thanks to the job, now I wake up every month a salary double that of the fellows.
Consider that six months ago I went to his office to ask for guidance and together choose a research topic that later appeared at a Summer School.
Consider that in the Summer School I dropped sticks everywhere so poorly constructed that was my (not yet started) thesis.
consider that this was my fault for going to the wild at a Summer School without consulting (without even!) With my director (a). Consider
I got sick of the topic and I fond of another field of study, in which a young teacher Head of Department is a specialist and future reference.
consider that because of a delay in the delivery of their course work and a nasty post-doctoral, young professor caught seems to me a little grudge.
Consider that he still preferred him to supervisor, by subject, because it goes to anyone and tip over, because it is a worker and because I like him, bucking.
Consider, finally, she probably also of a professor, will be a perfect " passive director."

[THIS]

That said, I say (to encourage me, mostly) that

1. The thesis does not write the director, passive or active, but me.
2. What if at this stage did not have a theme chosen is because I have no clear vocation to investigate something concrete, then finally I'm good, as long as I find interesting. Falling in love with the thesis that writing is difficult.
3. That if my head still happens to me in the future, I have the possibility (very fashionable in the department lately) to request another teacher who is a guardian (or assistant principal, not as would be called).

and decree, which by my nose, today September 22, 2008 I start working on my thesis, the first part (dissertation) intend to complete within a maximum period of one year.
