Setting up the aims and objectives and finalizing them:09

 

(Source:pexels.com)

While starting your PhD, you have to set your aims and objectives. The aims and objectives are carefully chosen after the research problem is fixed. Now, many people will just write the objectives in haste without thinking much but it is not advisable. I request you to plan your whole project in advance including probable experiments & simulations. A well planned ‘Material & Methods’ which will be chapter 3 of your project thesis in future will help you in this regard. 

After your registration of project, you won’t be able to change the title and objectives. So, one must be careful. If you cannot do it in your organization or any laboratory, you should not set an objective that requires those facilities. Many a time people do not realize it and go haywire for non-availability of facility. When you submit your thesis, the reviewers will minutely observe whether the thesis is fulfilling the stated objectives or not. The reviewers will tell you to complete the unfinished in their review or remark incomplete. This becomes very tricky situation.

Generally, you get limited chances for review and beyond that a thesis may be rejected. You have to write it again and do all the procedure once again. In the process, you will lose one complete year.

Finding a research problem or gap & addressing novelty of the Ph.D project:10

Your Ph.D project will have a certain research problem. Now, who do you find a problem or research gap? For that matter, you have to study the topic extensively. Sometimes you may be addressing a same problem but your approach may be different with different parameters. Then, you have to clearly mention the difference between you work and other’s work. Sometimes, your research problem will be totally unique and then, you do not have to give such justification.

 

While writing your Ph.D thesis and even research articles, you always have to address the question “ What is the novelty of your work?”. It means that the reviewer wants to know whether you are offering something new through your work. Therefore, one must ponder over this question early on his project. Otherwise, you have to reorient your work later on which is a big problem and time consuming. Many a time, students get trapped in the final submission phase due to this. So, one should be very careful regarding this.

 

One should try to publish as early as possible to register the idea regarding a certain approach to a problem. Many researchers try to register the ideas by attending top tier conferences. When you present an article in such Scopus indexed or Web of Science indexed tier 1 conferences, your article’s extended version gets published in good journals. This way you can register the idea. However, you should be careful not to give away the main essence of your project. In other words, you are to publish bare minimum meaning you are to keep the main part for the thesis (more like a trailer rather than whole film).

 

If you put everything to the article, you will not have anything left for the thesis and you may face copy right issue in some cases. Then, you can continue your work in peaceful manner. While working in your topic, you need to check the recent developments in the certain field frequently. If something similar comes into your notice, you need to tweak your work to maintain distinction. For more such articles, you can check the book 'PhD guidebook'
