Some useful PhD resources

I found other academics’ writing useful in navigating PhD life. So I thought I should put together a list of them.

• Prof.Cal Newport’s Study Hacks blog.
• Prof. Matt Might’s blog also has a set of articles for graduate students.
  • The illustrated guide to a Ph.D.
  • The shape of your problem
  • A thesis proposal is a contract
  • 3 qualities of successful Ph.D. students: Perseverance, tenacity and cogency
  • Productivity tips, tricks and hacks for academics (2015 edition)
  • Reading for graduate students
• How to Read a Paper is another classic.
• Richard Feynman’s Letter on What Problems to Solve
