3 websites every PhD student should have bookmarked

Sometimes you have 15 minutes to kill during an incubation, time point, or exposure.

Here's 3 pages I recommend you click on while you wait.

1: PhD comics: Piled higher and deeper.

This comic strip follows the life of a nameless, bespectacled, engineering grad student as he and his friends struggle with procrastination, the endless quest to find free food, ridiculous supervisors and trying to have a life outside of the lab. Always good for a laugh, and so easy to relate to.

2: What should we call grad school.

"When someone brags about how late he stays to work."

One of those great giffy tumblrs, constantly being updated, always accurate, often at summer student's expense. If only there was a way to print these out and post them on the lab bulletin board.



3: Stuff by Matt Might, particularly the Illustrated Guide to a PhD

I came across Matthew Might (@mattmight ) 's stuff just the other day. Someone had share a FB link to his illustrated guide to a PhD, and well for me it was inspiring rather than just sad and funny. Then I spent another hour or so reading other articles like his 'How to get into grad school' his recomended books and papers every PhD student  should read and his team fortress related guide to the 9 types of students. Anyways, this is a great place to procrastinate and still feel like you a developing yourself into a better scientist.

  1. A Ph.D student is somebody that goes past winning a four year certification in school to acquiring a Doctorate in a subject or major. Students that gain a Ph.D for the most part take no less than 20 extra classes in their major after they acquire their first higher education (four year certification) and they compose an exposition or Thesis paper on something that identifies with their major pay someone to do my essay. It is not important to win a graduate degree before acquiring a doctorate or Ph.D. Individuals who procure a Doctorate are beat in their field and frequently instruct at colleges.

  4. While doing the literature review, writing the study proposal, introduction, background and the rest of the dissertation, you will have to include statistical analysis of the data. It is always the statistical significance of the paper that matters. Most importantly, dissertation writing is not a one man show. Professional dissertation writing involves other disciplines as well, and the assistance that would be the most beneficial for you is that of the statisticians.
