Honestly, I love that the Strathclyde research community is generous when it comes to sharing knowledge. People are always happy to help and suggest/advice on where to find what you’re looking for.

Choose a subject that can sustain your passion through deep study and over a long period of time. Do some advanced research into your subject before applying so that you're familiar with the existing theories and techniques in the field.

Unlike most students at Strathclyde, I am studying part-time and from overseas. Doing a part-time PhD was an excellent way to do so, something that is not offered by many universities.
