Discovering you PhD Potential (MOOC)

 First reflection

Activity

We would like you, in your Reflective Journal, to begin to form a clear career path.

• Where do you see yourself in five years’ time? In ten years?

In five years, I hope to be nearing the end of my PhD, with my PGDE under my belt. I will still be working in the same job or something similar. I will have fully developed the MA courses that I am writing, and they will be live. I will have completed the extra research I am doing now and finished writing my book.

In ten years, I will have completed my PhD, and I hope to have finished writing another book based on my research.

Consider carefully whether doing a PhD will help you to fully achieve this, and if so how?

• Do you need to consider other types of study before embarking on a PhD?
  
  I have completed a BA and MA Res; I am hoping to submit my AFHEA in the next few weeks, and hope to move on to FHEA and, hopefully, SFHEA.
