Research Skills: Intellectual Risk
Intellectual Risk - skills required of excellent PhD or doctoral students
An excellent researcher at doctoral or PhD level:
- Tests the boundaries, is willing to expose ideas to critical audience and to critically appraise other research.
Looking ahead, a doctoral student can aim to become an excellent early-career researcher who:
- Challenges the status quo in thinking within own discipline/research area.
Note: These skills are identified in the UK Researcher Development Framework – where they appear as A3.5 Intellectual risk
