I find it a bit uncomfortable that one of the major parts of a Ph.D. viva in the UK is verification of authorship. https://t.co/nOARcFfCuq 8 atbildes

@dimazest Supervisor’s (or second supervisor’s, or independent assessor’s) opinion might be enough in majority of the cases. | ||

@dimazest It might be a fix to the situation when a student meets with the supervisor once a year. | ||

@dimazest Why not to promote closer student-supervisor collaboration instead. Reserve more time and resources to it. | ||

Dedicate more time and resources to the supervision process. | ||

I didn’t decide to do a Ph.D. to cheat the system, I decided to do it because I believe it’s a right thing to do. | ||

That's what I've stated in my application documents. The truthfulness of my intentions should be validated during the interview process. | ||

The misalignment of my motivation (i want to do cool things) and university expectations (you might have cheated) is unfair. | ||

Hey, I quit an interesting (and well paid) job to do a Ph.D. Would I do it if I wanted to cheat? |
