Flexible Study

“It is important to be self-motivated when it comes to postgraduate research degrees. I find having specific study days and times allows me to focus intensely for designated periods of time while also giving me free time to engage in hobbies. There is absolutely time for family or a part-time job alongside postgraduate study, but I also remind myself regularly that postgraduate study is a huge privilege and something I really want to do, so sometimes it must take precedent and I have to make sacrifices – after all it doesn’t last forever so I want to make the most of it.”
