Everyone who loves to be in school would love to be as bold as you're in taking the step to get back.

Don't give up yet many want to learn from you and be as bold!

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

Don't ever be disappointed that what you're writing doesn't make sense.

We've all been there, and that research report came in.

[Scholarship for PhD @ScholarshipfPhd]

I respect anyone who has a PhD, because the level of discipline, consistency, and mental stamina it takes to stay committed to solving one research problem for years is definitely not for the faint-hearted.

You can now earn a PhD in China by creating a product instead of writing a 100-page dissertation!

China has grown tired of PhD students writing research papers that no one reads and is now demanding that they build real products instead.

This radical shift in the philosophy of higher education in China represents a formal transition from "textual academia" to "utilitarian academia," where the traditional doctoral dissertation is replaced by the creation of a tangible product. The brilliance of this idea lies in its direct approach to the scourge of "dead research" that consumes years of researchers' efforts only to remain locked away in drawers, thus transforming the university from an intellectual silo into a productive engine that feeds the market and fosters innovation immediately.

The academy is not democratic. Don't think your graduate degree is top of the agenda if you don't play your part!

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

Second month of the year!

How much have you worked on regarding that thesis or academic paper?

Writing is about a little by little till you have it all together!

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

A good MA/MSc and PhD is a finished one, not a perfect one.

Academics

We are mentors. We are not executioners with a blade axe at the guillotine

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

This got me thinking about many things.

Dear Graduate Student

No one, not even your advisor/ supervisor should ever make you feel so foolish that you want to drop your graduate education.

Anonymous Question:

“How late is too late to quit a PhD?”

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

Dear Graduate Student

Your supervisor is not your friend. Do your work, let them do their work. They're your supervisor.

Don't try to manipulate them with friendship vibes. That ain't their place!

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

A very jnteresting thread

[Isaac Kiiza Tibasiima 🇺🇬 @ITibasiima]

Academics, as mentors to our students, we need to learn a few things:

1. We are dealing with human beings not machines. We can't expect them to churn out results in a minute and not 3 years

2. Human beings bleed, go through turmoil, struggle, lose loved ones.

[Dear Graduate Student @DearGrad]

"It is not a PhD until you've been fried and roasted" is the most meanest (sic) statement any PhD holder can tell a struggling student
