How to Research & Write a Successful PhD by Kathleen Mcmillan

A practical, step-by-step guide to postgraduate study, covering the whole research process from planning to writing up and beyond.   Undertaking a large-scale original research project involves choosing an appropriate topic, planning and carrying out the research, and analysing and writing up the data and conclusions. At PhD level, these steps can be challenging for any student.

It is an invaluable tutorial and reference for those entering academic life at doctoral level, providing practical guidance, examples and tips for success.

Jonathan Weyers and Kathleen McMillan both work at the University of Dundee. Both have been teaching and lecturing for over 25 years and latterly have specialised in the transferable skills area. They have a track record of collaborative writing and achievement in this area.
