UWA maths thesis f.a.q.
This is a list of the questions and stuff that came up while I was doing my Phd, told in part as a story illustrating my own experiences. Some of these will apply to any thesis, some are specific to UWA/maths. Sometimes I refer to "my supervisor" as if I only had one- this is because the others were overseas etc at the time. Almost all of this is about the end of my thesis, because that's when it occurred to me to write it.
A lot of this information can be found on the Graduate School Website and you really ought to give it a good read, but I know I would have felt better if I'd had something like this to look at, so here you go :) If you have any questions feel free to email me at sqbr@graduate.uwa.edu.au, or contact the Graduate School.
On the left is a list of all the sections written so far, while below is an expanded list with all the subsections listed. I make no guarantees that I'll ever finish the whole thing, but I'll certainly add anything someone asks me about.
