About the Book

The definitive toolkit for doctoral students in engineering on thesis--and journal--article preparation, project (and stress) management, IP protection, collaborations, and other aspects of the PhD journey.

It shouldn't take a PhD to get a PhD, but sometimes the process can seem that confusing--even though, to the mentors and advisors, so obvious that it goes without saying. For doctoral students in engineering confronting this dilemma, Caroline Boudoux, an accomplished researcher and entrepreneur, provides a demystifying guide to the challenges--daunting, seemingly routine, and at times unexpected--of pursuing a PhD in this demanding field. In It Goes without Saying, Boudoux marshals her own considerable experience mentoring graduate students, teaching doctoral workshops, and--not so long ago--earning her own PhD at MIT to give PhD candidates the know-how, and the confidence, to succeed.

Among the topics this book takes up are:

  • What a PhD is: the journey, the milestones, and the endgame.
  • Technical questions about what a doctoral project in engineering is and how to lead one.
  • Practical matters including tips on writing, from proposal to dissertation; ethics; and intellectual property.
  • Personal concerns, such as dealing with expectations, imposter syndrome, and stress.

From the mundane to the metaphysical, this user-friendly guide gives the doctoral student in engineering the tools to make it from Day 1 to the successful completion of the PhD in a timely, fully informed, and forward-looking manner.
About the Author: Caroline Boudoux is Professor of Engineering Physics at Polytechnique Montréal and Cofounder and Copresident at Castor Optics. She is on the Board of Meetings for OPTICA, is a Fellow of SPIE, and a Fulbright scholar. Boudoux has authored three textbooks in optics and engineering and contributed to several edited books, publications, and patents.
