The illustrated guide to a Ph.D

Very fall, I explain to a fresh batch of Ph.D. students what a Ph.D. is.
It's hard to describe it in words.
So, I use pictures.
Read below for the illustrated guide to a Ph.D. 


Imagine a circle that contains all of human knowledge:
By the time you finish elementary school, you know a little:
By the time you finish high school, you know a bit more:
With a bachelor's degree, you gain a specialty:
A master's degree deepens that specialty:
Reading research papers takes you to the edge of human knowledge:
Once you're at the boundary, you focus:
You push at the boundary for a few years:
Until one day, the boundary gives way:
And, that dent you've made is called a Ph.D.:
Of course, the world looks different to you now:
So, don't forget the bigger picture:

Keep pushing. 

Only in Melaka

Warning!! Your driving is too slow. Please speed up

Tak tau nak komen ape sebab kalau highway kat Malaysia ni limit setakat 110 km/j bersamaan 0.033km/s.

Sedikit info

1. Kereta terpanas didunia 400km/h  =  0.111 km/s


2. Laju bunyi  340 m/s  =  0.34029  km/s

3. Halaju lepasan bumi (laju roket untuk keluar daripada bumi) 24200 mph  =  10.818368 km/s

4. Laju Cahaya 299792458 m/s  = 299,792  km/s

Mungkin anda boleh imagine kot berapa laju 50 km/s

PhD - Physical Head Damage


Ini adalah kesimpulan daripada apa yang boleh saya simpulkan dalam kursus Research Methodology yang saya hadiri baru-baru ini.

1. PhD bukanlah satu perkara untuk kebanggan
2. PhD bukanlah semata-mata 'prestige' dalam dunia akademik
3. PhD adalah 'sharing of knowledge'
4. PhD adalah pintu kepada dunia ilmu
5. PhD adalah salah satu jalan untuk menghayati betapa kerdilnya kita atas muka bumi Allah ini.
6. PhD mengajar kita erti menjadi Hamba
7. PhD mengajar kita meminta hanya kepadaNya

Many thanks to all presenter ( Profesors, Assoc. Prof, Dr.).

Moga aku dapat menjadi hambaNya yang sejati
