So yesterday one my PhD students passed his viva with flying colours.
I’m not sure that the perfect thesis ever gets submitted, so he has some grammatical corrections and a few explanatory paragraphs to add here and there but – overall – it went as well as could ever be hoped for! The examiners had no problem with logic of the study or the manner of its defence.
It feels great when you’ve steered their development to reach that point and it’s gone really well for them.
Now to the final submission, his graduation, and – of course – the publications…
I just have to make sure all my other PhD students have the same kind of outcome. No pressure there, then.
