Writing and review process statistics •Based on own statistics among 14 friends with PhD (from TUT, HUT and Oulu Univ.) •On average: 7-8 months from starting the writing till Dissertation
Review process –things to consider • If you send your thesis before summer/winter holidays => reduced chances that Reviewers will read it during the holiday months =>some additional time is lost • Risks: ‣ Reviewers not satisfied with the quality or quantity and asking for additional publications. Mitigation: have sufficient publications when submitting the thesis and check the requirements of a PhD thesis in the country where the Reviewer comes from (e.g., 'Compendium' concept is sometimes difficult to be understood outside Nordic countries) ‣ Reviewers not exactly in your research field => comments hard to understand or comply with. Mitigation: chose people close to your research area. ‣ Delays in the review process. Mitigation: it helps if the supervisor knows the Reviewers enough such that he can push them in completing the review within a certain period.
