Welcome to IOU Digital Library

A practical, candid guide for prospective and current doctoral students, offering advice on the many “unwritten rules” of PhD research — from choosing a research topic, managing supervision and academic networks, reading efficiently, writing dissertations, preparing for viva-voce, to planning post-PhD careers. The book addresses pitfalls rarely discussed in formal guides and aims to help researchers navigate the PhD process more effectively and with less stress.
