Are you thinking about doing a PhD but unsure where to begin? You are not alone!<\/p>

At the University of Westminster, we understand that applying for a PhD can be a complex and often mysterious process. This includes everything from choosing a research topic, selecting a university, and finding a supervisor, to writing a PhD proposal, participating in interviews, and engaging in independent research.<\/p>

It can also be particularly daunting for those from backgrounds underrepresented in doctoral study who may be the first in their family to study at undergraduate level.<\/p>

This session will provide insight into the application process for a PhD and what it involves once you begin. There will also be a chance to ask questions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
