The Thesis Whisperer is a blog newspaper dedicated to the topic of doing a thesis and is edited by Dr Inger Mewburn, Director of research training at the Australian National University. Read about how to support our work.
Would you like to write for the Whisperer? Here’s our editorial guidelines
- We want to be concise. PhD students have to do a lot of reading so no posts will be longer than 1000 words
- We want to learn from people’s stories about doing a research degree, but we don’t need to hear about your topic. There’s enough journals out there for that.
- We are not a ‘how to’ guide to doing a thesis, but we are happy to dish out practical tips and techniques that work for us.
- We don’t want to just talk about writing – successfully finishing a dissertation is about more than that. But we don’t want to be sued, so we are going to always keep it nice.
- We want to stimulate conversations, so our posts will always be opinionated (hopefully without being obnoxious).
- We want to hear your voice. Doing a thesis can take the fun out of anyone’s writing. This is a place you can relax because there is no examiner watching.
If you write for us, we can’t pay you, but we promise to never rip off your work and present it as our own. If you want to write for us it is because you have an urge to share your experience and help others so it may travel further than you think (note the licensing arrangements below).
Interested? Email inger.mewburn@anu.edu.au, preferably with a sample piece of less than 1000 words. Please note: we only accept posts from people who have had the experience of doing a PhD, or working in a professional capacity with research students. We do not accept posts from professional marketing bloggers.

Theses
Constructing bodies: gesture, speech and representation at work in architectural design studios. Winner of the John Grice award for best PhD thesis, Faculty of Architecture Building and Planning, The University of Melbourne 2009.
Previous studies of the design studio have tended to treat learning to design as a matter of
learning to think in the right way, despite the recognition that material artifacts and the ability to make and manipulate them in architectural ways is important to the design process. Through the use of empirical data gathered from watching design teachers and students in action, this thesis works to discover how material things and bodies are important to the fabrication of architectural meaning and architectural subjectivity within design studios. In particular the role of gesture is highlighted as doing important work in design studio knowledge practices.
The approach taken in this thesis is to treat design activity in design studios in a ‘post-human’
way. An analytical eye is turned to how things and people perform together and are organised in various ways, using Actor network theory (ANT) as a way to orientate the investigation. The assumption drawn from ANT is that that architectural meaning, knowledge and identity can positioned as network effects, enacted into being as the design studio is ‘done’ by the various actors — including material things, such as architectural representations, and human behaviours, such as gesture.

Hi, it’s great to see that you do research on research education. I am doing my PhD on employability of doctoral researchers in social sciences:)
We should talk! Sounds like your research would be very interesting.
I am lucky enough to be an academic in a primarily administrative unit (School of Graduate Research). My teaching load is light so I can concentrate on doing research aimed at improving the experience of PhD and masters students. So far I have not met anyone else, other than my colleague Dr Barnacle, who has a full time role like this.
That’s a great job to have! I hope my research topic will be useful, and will help to shape policy and practice in the UK doctoral education (let’s be ambitious:). I have found several PhDs doing research on researchers. Maybe we should organise a doctoral sonsortium on this:)
Hi,
Thanks for tweeting about my new blog (http://explorationsofstyle.wordpress.com/). The mention led me back here. I hadn’t seen your site before, and it seems fabulous. Thesis writing is one of my interests, and I look forward to learning more from you in future posts. Thanks again!
Why thank you 🙂 I’m loving your work too – there’s now a link on my side bar under services and support
There are some interesting clnoisg dates on this article but I don’t know if I see all of them center to heart. There may be some validity however I’ll take hold opinion until I look into it further. Good article , thanks and we wish extra! Added to FeedBurner as effectively
Hi!
I’ve just found your blog, love it & wish I’d known about it earlier. I’m working on a PhD about my favourite topic: Pain! I also blog regularly at http://healthskills.wordpress.com – on the topic: Pain! Actually, self management of chronic pain, and I write for health professionals working with people who have chronic pain. My research uses grounded theory to explain how people with chronic pain who live well in the community manage to do so without needing to see people like me.
cheers

Thank you so much for this site. I am currently writing my PhD thesis and have spent the weekend reading previous posts and wishing I’d found you sooner.
You’re welcome!
I’m so glad to have found you near the start of my PhD! Even though we seem to be in vastly different fields (I’m researching the social behaviour and personality of captive cheetahs), I have found your posts both useful and interesting and I’m sure they will come in very handy when I’m writing my thesis and other papers. I also have a blog at http://virtual-doc.salford.ac.uk/cheetahphd.
Looking forward to future posts!
What an excellent topic, Carly! #Respect
Grouse blog… I’m about to link to the blog to all our Fac Ed PhD students via my fortnightly Graduate Studies Bulletin – so expect more traffic. Great to meet you last week – look forward to more of your awesomeness.
Dear Inger,
hello! I just found your site through Twitter, and it’s really great.
I am a former tenured prof and department head, based in the U.S., and I have launched a new site and blog, “The Professor Is In.,” to provide what I call “BS-free advising for grad school, the job market, and tenure.”
It’s at: http://www.theprofessorisin.com.
I am wondering if you’d be kind enough to visit my site and consider listing it among the illustrious company of excellent blogs on your blogroll? I’d like to be in touch about contributing as well! Thanks for your excellent work!

Hi Inger,
I found your blog yesterday during my web ramblings. What a wonderful site. As someone said in a comment earlier, I wish I had found this blog a few months ago when I was stuck with my thesis. But even having now completed it, it is rewarding reading this blog. I already mentioned it in a post on my blog, but I will also personally recommend it to friends. I could probably give a modest contribution too at some point. Carry on this awesome work. All the best, Hilra
Thanks so much – glad to hear you found us and love to publish something soon if you’d like to write for us.
Yes, I’d love to 😉
I have quite a number of publications and authored four books. I would like to convert my publications into a PhD degree. I am currently a Senior law lecturer at University of Venda, South Africa. My publications are found in google “Hlako Jacob choma

This is a great idea. I am a ‘mature’ PhD candidate (over 50) who has a great deal of expertise in my field. I have only started the literature review and it is already making me crazy…. I only know some theory but know it extremely well. I am finding errors or misunderstandings in papers, excessive jargon and cliches in many papers, and a big gap between what I read and current practice. Am I alone in finding this?
As such, I look forward to reading this blog in the future.
I think it’s a sign that you have highly developed solid critical capacities when you can see the gaps and holes with more ease. Thanks for coming by 🙂
My sister who has just commenced her PhD studies was alerted to this blog. I, who have been studying for my PhD for 2 and a half years, had never heard of it! Great to find it, and perhaps add my voice to the sidebar: Jessplainsong’s Research Blog http://jessplainsong.wordpress.com. Always a great read, adding to my procrastination moments!
Thanks Jess! We have added you to the side bar under student blogs 🙂
I am a docoral student working on my dissertation and often blog about my topics (disordered eating, risky sexual activity and substance use, and adoelscent developmnet) on my site! I am adding this helpful site to my blogroll, and hope you might consider posting mine!

I’m at the end of my 2nd year of my PhD, and do write from time to time at: http://www.jasminezheng.com . Would be good to be added to the community of PhD students from everywhere.
HI I’m just beginning my Doctorate of Education. Im planning on working on it part time over 6 years -which makes things a bit tricky! I’d love to join and interact with the community here as I’m finding it hard to know where to start! Any advice or posts that might be useful to me would be gratefully accepted !
PS I’m a Melbournite too :0)
Hi and welcome 🙂 I am on holiday at the moment; the blog normally comes out twice a week and most interaction happens on the current post.

A quick comment to say thanks for being a great read in 2011! I sometimes write about the PhD life on my blog and so it’s always useful to find similarily-themed blogs for inspiration and interesting thoughts. I’ve just updated my links page as a “thank you” to all the blogs that have inspired me this year – one of the best things about blogging i find lots of other fun blogs – and I included your site. Looking forwards to more interesting posts in 2012. Happy New Year!

hello dr. mewburn,
Thank you so much for your website. I met it through your twitter. I am from Turkey and doing Phd in the UK. After I met your website, I looked for blogs and websites on PhD, just like yours, in Turkish, for those who are not good at reading and understanding in English very well. I found yours very helpful, but I couldn’t find any website like yours in Turkish. So, I decided to write a blog on which I share my experiences and ideas on Phd. Well, I haven’t finished my PhD yet, so I can only talk about the PhD process and some helpful tips. Thank you for the inspiration! My blog is http://tezenzi.wordpress.com/
Hello, my blog is http://www.adunokupe.blogspot.com
I’ll love to write too, you can have a view of my blog to see my style – although I write on a wide variety of topics.
My phd is on Leadership within the Tourism Industry.
Came across your blog via twitter’s #phd chat field and it’s very useful!
Thank you for being encouraging.
Hi Inger,
I attended your seminar at ANU this morning and was reassured and inspired. Thanks! I’m in my first year of PhD across visual arts and Indonesian studies, whilst also looking after my 3 kids under 6. Preschool hours and after bedtime are my workings hours and, in between paraysing bouts of self doubt, I’ve been telling myself this would be enough so long as I am efficient. Now I am armed with your practical tool box, your own example, and encouraging stats about productivity of PhD students, I feel bolstered again. I can do this!
Oh, and I also have a blog (this was a strategy do keep writing!) http://www.ellydotkent.blogspot.com

Dear Ingrid et al,
Wondering if anyone has any suggestions, or if other students have been in similar straits in AU, and how they proceeded….and what leverage (if any) a PhD student has in situations like this?
I am hoping that people have some suggestions for me. I am one year into my PhD (part time enrolled) and have made excellent progress on my project (yes I have that in writing from sups….) and preparing for an early confirmation. Just when I tried to access funding, I was informed that my school had “no money”. When I say no money, I mean zilch nada and I am expected to fund my project expenses! My project involves travel and data collection abroad and although I don’t have a budget yet….I imagine it would be in the realm of 10-15 K…..
I am in the process of taking this up the chain but I am quite upset. I am at an Australian university as a domestic student. I prepared a short project proposal 6 mos into my candidature which was approved by my sups…and now my school is claiming they have no money. It seems like the admin is trying to lay the blame on my sups (who are excellent)…I don’t know what went wrong with funding….my sups say they didn’t know they were supposed to pay for my project, the admin say that they were, etc, it is clearly indicated on the university website that direct research costs (including travel!) are paid by the school….my guess is that this is not my sups fault although they seem to be getting blamed for taking me on….Anyway, as I await for a verdict with the office of research on what can be done….I am obviously concerned. I am not sure what bargaining chips I have. This university is highly ranked for research, one of the top in the world…..and they clearly (in writing) inform students that the enrolling school pays for the direct research costs. (except apparently for me)…..Anyone know what kind of bargaining chips I have? Oh, there was a suggestion for “changing my project” to something more local but I have been working on this now for over 1 year….and I chose this project …t..to start all over on something that may cost less and delay my phD for another year does not seem fair….Suggestions Please!!!!!!!!!!!!! My project is in the Social Sciences.
I should also say that I believe there has been some loses of funding etc in the past year from one of their streams but I was never informed this would affect my project funding. My project is something that I designed so there is no grants or anything else associated with it, nor any other students or researchers working on it other than me….
Thank you!
While I agree with M-H, it’s unusual for a university to promise to cover all costs unless a project is externally funded. Usually the uni defines ‘costs’ as office space, computer, Internet access, library and supervision. Read the fine print of the uni policy carefully and, if they do make more promises than this, by all means hold their feet to the fire. Your student organisation will have professional advocates who can help you with this. Good luck!
Thanks Inger. Well this is what it says on their website
Research Costs
The School/Institute you enrol through at XUni is responsible for meeting all ‘direct research costs’ that are necessary to undertake your RHD project. This includes:
access to resources or facilities at XUni or other organisations in Australia or overseas;
travel to complete fieldwork, collect data, or to visit libraries or other repositories;
training in techniques; and
necessary coursework undertaken outside the School/Institute.
Funding may be available for supplementary research that is not essential to your project but will enhance your research experience at XUni
….and the graduate school has confirmed this to me verbally that the enrolling school is responsible for covering my direct research costs and that “if they didn’t have the money for funding they shouldn’t have taken you on as a student”. That leaves me in a PhD no mans land as I wait for them to figure out what to do next…..
Do you think this is enough to hold their feet to the fire?
Also, if I fail my confirmation due to lack of funding (or asked to leave for the same reason), won’t that affect my ability to seek a phD elsewhere in terms of tuition costs as a domestic student? Arrrrgh!
I love the idea of this blogsite; I think it is brilliant! If only blogs had been around when I was thinking of doing a thesis many many years ago! I am mainly a creative writer, though I do write book and play reviews. I would love to contribute something, but am not sure my stuff would be acceptable. Power to your collective pens! Alienora

Dear Thesis Whisperer,
Thanks so much for writing this blog! I’m an Australian living in Switzerland with my partner and young daughter and I’ve just started a Creative writing Phd at Deakin University (by way of an historical novel and exegesis). I’m going to be an extremely off-campus student.
Living in a non-English speaking country as I do, it’s very difficult to find a network for both the creative writing, the research and the whole thesis writing thing. With this in mind I’m searching for online lifelines, and I think your site fits the bill very nicely.

I am phd in ANU, and currently I am looking for a place to upload my academic research data online so it would be the support material in my exegesis. The data are all in 70 pdfs, and I try to upload several on academia.com, but it will give each pdf a page, which is not quite what I want.
