One of the differences between many European and North American doctoral programs is the need to take a suite of courses - some of which may be outside of your research focus.

This semester I am being stretched/challenged by taking a required course in quantitative research methodology. I know it will make me a more rounded researcher, but it is a struggle in places.

Migwec,
Ehkosit!
