Before the PhD
Before starting a PhD program, ask yourself: Is a PhD program right for me, and are the conditions right for my situation? The following checklist can help you decide
Checklist (click to expand)
- Why do I want a PhD?
- Can I imagine working on one topic for at least 3, more realistically 4 years?
- Do I have adequate funding for the entire duration of the program?
- Do I have an advisor with whom I can imagine working for at least 3 years?
- Does my advisor have time to advise me and meet with me regularly? Can I conclude a supervision agreement with her/him?
- Do I have a place where I can complete my work and/or conduct experiments?
- Do I seek interaction on a regular basis? Which type of PhD is right for me?
PoGS is the skills and advising center for junior and advanced researchers at the University of Potsdam and supports you ideally and financially.
