Iain Jackson is an architect and historian at the Liverpool School of Architecture. His research is mainly focused on 20thC architecture in ‘the tropics’.

In this episode we talk about the importance of project management for the PhD.
Iain suggests ways of breaking down the project into manageable chunks and for developing the ‘narrative arc’ of the thesis.
He also talks about the importance of planning and shares a top tip about focused working.
