Phd Student Interview Questions

2,726 phd student interview questions shared by candidates

Two technical questions from FEM (Galerkin method), solid mechanics (state of stress) and then a general chat. The questions were not textbook based but from his research problem. It was brainstorming rather than having a definite answer. Counter questions from both sides! He also introduced me about the research culture in his group, courseworks, the nature of work, etc.
