DESCRIPTION | The doctoral journey is not an easy one. Academic stress experienced by doctoral researchers is often not given its due attention. Evidence suggests that stress may hinder the performance and efficiency of individuals on a personal and professional level. Stressors, the perception, the reaction, and coping mechanisms constitute a personal journey. The aim of this workshop is to provide a safe space to explore, identify and share experiences of stress and coping techniques, to support all participants through their doctoral journey. Outcomes: By the end of this workshop, the doctoral researcher should: - be able to distinguish between pressure and stress; - be able to identify the impact of stress on health and wellbeing; - be able to recognise doctoral researchers’ stress and coping mechanisms; - be able to explore different practical coping techniques; - have shared effectively through conversation. |
