Good morning house.
My name is Michael Adebayo a final year student of biochemistry.
Am sorry for asking this here.
Pls house how can I get to formulate a project topic. My supervisor asks me to go and look for topic myself, and the topic should be something that hasn't been published.
Pls I need help

1. There is nothing that has not been published before. 2. No one can formulate a topic for you.

First ask yourself, of everything i've been taught in biochemistry, which field do I intend to specialize in? What problem are you observing in the society that can be solved with the knowledge of biochemistry and your specialization.

From here coin a topic around such problem. Go online and type your proposed topic. Read 20 journals on the related works. Check what they did, what they achieved, and what they didn't or could not do. Modify your topic to capture their limitations.

I NEED A RESEARCH ASSISTANT JOB

I am a Master's student of Chemical Engineering here in Nigeria. I have just completed my course work. I am available to work as a research assistant. My research interest is plastic recycling and utilization of biomass waste as material and energy resources. My strength is in Chemical Reaction Engineering, Biochemical Engineering, and Mathematical Modelling with MATLAB.

Any recommendation of how to get part-time or full-time job in this area will be highly appreciated.

I am also available to assist research and undergraduate students.

I can be reached on oduokidongesit@gmail.com

I love Nigerians. When you tell them you need a job and list your abilities, they dig down hunting for your weakness and pop it up. I didn't say I need job as a research consultant. There is an entry point for any career in a functional society.

No I don't have verifiably published papers yet and not having them shouldn't be seen as a disability but a process.

I have just finished my course work and exams. Now on my research which you know will statutory lead me to publish at least two papers. It's a process.

Thank you so much for your response. I sincerely appreciate.

How He Got Fully Funded Scholarships in Norway

Watch quick interview with Nwagwu Chibuikem Chrys on how he won not 1 but 2 Graduate assistantships/funding from the prestigious Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Yes, Chrys is the same guy who inspired my YouTube channel & edited my scholarship essays while he was still an undergrad student.
Listen to his unbelievable scholarship application journey where he needed neither GRE nor English test, nor even recommendation letters!

This will be possible. Admission into PhD program varies by university; in general the following are considered:

—- relevant courses taken and passed at undergraduate + master classes are largely considered.

—- CGPA at both undergraduate and master levels.

—-thesis or research area is taken into consideration.

— Research proposal on how relevant to your proposed and previous academic will be considered


In most countries abroad, the PhD admission evaluation will be largely based on your undergraduate courses 70-80% (meaning that, in the academic aspect, the department check if you have taken and passed relevant courses to economics at your undergraduate level), then this will be combine with relevant courses you have taken at your master level 20-30%.

If there are courses you are supposed to take to boost your knowledge, you will be given foundation courses relevant to Econs.

Hi,

In many of my posts here (I believe like 5 times), I have stated steps on how to find subscription-based reputable journals from Elservier, Springer, Wiley, Taylor and Francis.

Kindly search on this thread. In short, nearly 95% of journals from these publishers are free to publish and highly reputable with internationally accepted indexes. Visit the publisher sites and find the journals or go through this thread.

Best wishes!

Hello everyone. Why is it that y'all skip my posts without reply. I have a question. Please kindly explain to me like you are explaining to a child. I did my undergraduate program in Business Administration and masters in Management. I have NO publications YET. I intend going for a PhD in Industrial and Organizational Psychology in one of the universities in the US. Here are my questions:

1. Since I am switching from Business Admin and management to Psychology, how do I explain my research interest, given the fact that I do not know much about this?
2. How do I mail a professor and get him to accept me?
3. Since I have no publications yet and I want to make a switch to Industrial/Organizational Psychology, do I have to publish on management journals or psychology journals?
4. Can you link me to any of the free journals I can publish on?
5. Can you kindly share GRE and TOEFL/IELTS materials with me?

For your other question on switching course, I will suggest you search online for sample sop and cold mails. Be on the lookout for those who made a major field switch.
Get ready to research a lot except you don't need funding. Getting fully funded graduate study is not an easy task. You have to get ready to read a lot.

It will end in praise.
