Starting your PhD Literature Review - How to develop a literature strategy
Feeling utterly overwhelmed at the thought of starting or developing your PhD literature review? Strategy? What strategy?! Have you tried to make a start but ended up drowning in the literature, disappearing down a citation rabbit hole or getting shiny object syndrome and completely losing your focus?
This third instalment of my PhD Survival Guide series will ease your literature review anxieties and get you back on track!
With over two decades of experience supporting doctoral students in UK universities, I understand how overwhelming starting a literature review can feel. However, I also know exactly how to develop an indicative outline structure to help you feel more organised as you begin to dive into the academic literature.
By the time you complete this PhD Survival Guide pack, you'll feel ready to start your literature review and you’ll be equipped with a list of questions you need the literature to answer.
