Hi All,
im due to have my PhD Transfer interview in the coming weeks and im looking for advice on prep for it. I have had to submit 2 documents (10k wrds each), a proposed methodology report (in point form) and a introduction (approx 4-6 pages) to an internal examiner and my supervisor. The field of research is in communications and i am starting to get the imposter syndrome fear as it approaches. Im unsure of what to expect and have only been told that I shouldn't be worrying as it is more so a constructive conversation that anything else... I still have been aked to open the procedure with a 10 min presentation.
Im looking for advice on what to include in the presentation and what to expect to be asked about. Im a part time student so am not surrounded by other postgrads who have just been through a similiar process.
Im researching our of DCU, if anyone has any advice it would be welcomed.
Thanks
