This talk introduces the PhD Planning Toolkit

Course details

A PhD is a major undertaking, yet many people spend more time planning a weekend away than they do planning the next three years of their life.

This generally leads to missing deadlines, running overtime, regular crises and lots of stress.

If you want to finish on time and enjoy the process along the way then it is important to have a good plan. You need some very specific skills and tools to plan a PhD. This workshop will introduce you to the PhD Planning Toolkit.

A video of this talk is available here.
