#doctoralresearch — Public Fediverse posts

If you think UK Higher Education is struggling there is one area where this is most pronounced and it’s the one I lead on in my University.

The number of publicly-funded doctoral studentships is falling sharply despite increased spending (partly because UKRI rightly increased stipends).

The biggest drop is in Engineering and Physical Sciences.

I knew all this but the actual numbers are terrifying.

So much for a knowledge economy.

I’m seeking recommendations for PhD programs. My masters level graduate work is focused on #posthumanism, and I have extensive experience in #CommunityDevelopment. For my doctoral research I’d like to merge the two fields to re-imagine how we do and be #community in the #Anthropocene. I’m looking for a program that is pretty self-directed and ideally offers opportunities for independent studies. I’m just starting this search process from scratch.

All suggestions welcome!

Hello @annamills, thank you for your work on #AI literacies, pedagogies, and awareness raising. It's helping me, at least, raise awareness within my own academic writing contexts.

Are you aware of any similar and/or specific work - including your own that I'm not aware of - relating to the use of #LLMs and other #ArtificialIntelligence writing technologies in #DoctoralWriting #DoctoralResearch #ResearchWriting?

Hi #AcademicMastodon

Who do you follow/subscribe to for up-to-date #PostDoc positions in #UK #Europe, beyond?

I know they're advertised across media but is there a reliable feed/jiscmail that collates in 1 place?

Asking on behalf of my many #PGRs who often come to me for advice on where to find out about Post-Doc opportunities.

Thanks.

Two years in the making, but milestone number one completed: submitted my qualitative research study for review by my advisors. Exhausted, but no rest for the wicked; time to get my quantitative study ready to roll. #groundedtheory #doctoralresearch

@sharplm

Wow!

So, I've given it the same 'story title' (which is deliberately the content of my book) but started it off differently: quite a story, in each case!

Can't begin fathom how much better #GPT-4 will be and keeping an eye on the implications for #AcWri and #DoctoralWriting #DoctoralResearch

Unbelievable creations!

It's not made its way over to #AcademicMastodon, yet, but the #OpenUniversity research community - via the Graduate School, which employs me - has a phenomenally creative tradition of baking research, which is simply outstanding.

Posting 2 of several brilliant entries (currently still being shared on the bird).

Voting starts tomorrow and ends 29 November #BakeYourResearch #PhDLife #AcademicChatter #DoctoralResearch

Working on my literature review for this qualitative study, starting to feel a good flow with the introduction into my methods. #doctoralresearch
