What is a PhD 4 Myths about phD thesis and SOCK:
In this video Dr Tahir Yaqub explains some misconception about PhD and PhD thesis and how you can prove that your thesis has significant original contribution to knowledge. The video discusses is there a set length for a PhD thesis, how to format a thesis, the importance of doing a literature review when you start your PhD. There must be two important outcomes of the literature review you do. First you should be able to determine a tiny area or field of research where no one is doing the research. You should also understand what other scientists and researchers are doing. In order to understand Significant Original Contribution to Knowledge (SOCK), one must understand:
1 What is a contribution
2. How would you prove that it is original &
3. When it will become significant
Once you understand what is PhD, how PhD works, it will be easier for you to do PhD.

![5 Things to Look for When Reading a Research Paper [for Literature Review]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/txtVDJkqRFI/mqdefault.jpg)
Interesting and very useful for Ph.D. students.
Best thing is to check the university to which the thesis is submitted. These might have thesis format, format for references etc. Sometimes templates are provided. Some universities now require report of plagiarism check using turn it in
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Doc, thank you for all your help in clarifying thngs regarding the Phd. This is, by far, the most informative channel pertaining to advance studies that I have seen.
Thanks Paolo for appreciating I am really glad that you found it useful
This is a great video! Directly illustrated!! I wish if I saw this some time ago! I would have saved a lot of stress!!!
Glad it was helpful!
It's a great video. Worth the time.

Thank You
Welcome please consider subscribing
Conference papers are important though publication in high impact journals may be more important.
Thanks for contributing
There are different types and formats of a Ph.D. thesis that varies to a different part of the world. Also, the approach towards the thesis varies accordingly. For example, a European one (Italy or Germany for instance) focuses more on the publication or thesis made of the published chapter. Each chapter corresponds to a paper. There will be a strong Introduction summarizing all these works (or forthcoming compilation and discussions) and a brief conclusion. In fact, recently I found a German or Dutch thesis which was merely a compilation of papers (six or seven Q1's, if I am not mistaken) plus a few pages of Introduction. I find the Commonwealth countries still following the conventional thesis style (Intro, Lit rev, contents, result and a discussion plus a conclusion) and they stress too much on its lit review and the gap. To find a gap in research (especially in fundamental science) is not an easy task either, whence most of the easy problems have been solved. This is the crucial instance where a Ph.D student requires his or her supervisor's Midas touch. Else they will be lost in the literature review as you have mentioned. It happened to me also, friends suggested me to combine the present problem with my previous knowledge of the field and it works wonderfully!
Yes find a gap or lost!
Each and every video is very helpful and informative. It helps in my PhD. thank you.
Thanks Shweta Have you subscribed to my channel?
@@digitidea yes. a long time ago.
Thanks
Dear Sir, I submitted my PhD thesis and waiting for the viva. Very honest You have born to teach. Excellent and efficient explanations. Please share your contacts, please.
thanks my email is digitideahelp@gmail.com
Quite useful. Thank you.
Similar to the above video, can you please share some guidelines on "How to write a research proposal" to get admission in university in PhD program?
Thanks Junaid Noted. Have you subscribed, if not plz do so and hit bell icon + allow notifications in your mobile device Tomorrow a NEW video is coming on Literature review
Many universities require submission of research proposal and annual report of progress.
true
You talk so clearly as you know what you’re talking about.
I am glad you liked
This is quite informative. Where does one begin in going about proposal/thesis writing?
What my Playlist PhD It has videos for research proposal, literature review etc
Thank you very much for this helpful information. So how improve literature review???
Thanks for the encouragement. The literature review can "Only" be improved by a "lot of reading of relevant papers both journal and conference papers".
Thank you for informative and educative video. I always follow you every week. Please, Dr Can you advise the best reference manager to use i.e. Endnote or Mendeley, if possible even through video in the coming week. am using Mendeley but sometimes I feel maybe this is not the right one !. Please help.
Thanks Marco i never recommend endnote my first choice for references is bibtex file as i mentioned in one of my video and never used Medele so dont know that
Asalamoalikum
Very informative vídeos, especially this one. JazakAllah khairan kaseeran. I am a doctoral student from Spain. Is there anyway to contact you personaly for special advise?
Thank you.
Salam Umar. Thanks for the comments. Sure you can send me an email drtahiryaqub@gmail.com
As you said never publish in the conference.Sir isn’t it good idea to publish your initial results in ieee conference and when you get full set of results then publish your work in an Article suppose ieee transaction.
What you suggests wait for full results and then publish an article or strt from conference and then go for article?
Plus also conference give you the chance to interact with other researchers
That is ok Adnan and I have explained this in one of my videos. There is one advantage of conferences that you meet new people which is important so yes that is good.
Kindly suggest for Publication in SCOPUS journal?
Watch my video 5 things phd students should do yearly there is some guidance
Thank u very much. I have a question (it is difficult for me to choose phd title, I interested software development area) plz give me advice about how to choose my phd title
Thanks Irfan noted the topic for a video but I can only give a broader and general advice, specific advice is more personalized and only you can give to yourself..
@@digitidea Jazaka allahukhayar
To Dr, what if my supervisor kept changing my research direction? My supervisor changed my research direction from building new system, to building something small which totally shifted my months of hard work and literature reviews as my previous literature review will not be relevant for the research direction now? Do I have to start a new literature review again ?
Bring it up to the research committee
For literature review if it is related only a bit more that should not be the issue you are here for a long game
@@digitidea Okie, i will try my best, thankyou Dr.
Do I misunderstood: I understand that PhDs should avoid conference publications..
Is that right?
In my opinion YES
@@digitidea I do understand your point!
However, I know many PhD students graduated just writing 4 conference papers, and zero journal paper.
Sir I am just completed my Post graduation and preparing for some entrance exam for PhD, So it is good for me to know about the whole process about PhD Or is it just waste of time at this time or This is good to know the all information about PhD?
If you are "determined" to do PhD, the sooner you get the bigger picture, the better....otherwise it is a waste of time
@@digitidea I determined Sir so I use it as a hobby and I always keep my eyes on research include 5-10 topic which are trending and in which I wanna do research. I visit university site foreign country also so that I can get some idea about research in detail but sometimes it feels me that I am doing much more at this preparing time because without entrance exam I can't do PhD so I m confused between them that I should carry on whatever I m doing or should focus only on Qualify entrance exam
