But keep in mind that different topics are differently easy for different people. Much like different methods are differently easy to grasp for different people. Someone who is inclined towards, say, computer science or physics will really struggle with qualitative methods. As for thinking up something original, learning that is part of becoming a PhD. You're not expected to have that skill perfected from the start. The point is that you specialize on a subject to the extent that you essentially reach the "frontier" of knowledge. Once you're there, and once you've done some studies and stuff, finding contributions becomes a lot easier. --- Everything has an end, except for the sausage.

[t:76381423]...</cite> <quote><cite>Rika_Furude posted...</cite> <quote>it depends pretty much entirely on what you are able to contribute to the field right? part of getting a phd involves performing an original research study and presenting your findings in a presentation to a board, and in most cases also getting it published in an official peer reviewed journal. in that case, whatever field is the easiest to think up something original to research i wish my local uni offered coursework masters degrees. the only thing keeping me back from that is the research aspect of it. not that im opposed to research, i just cant think of anything unique</quote> Well yeah. But keep in mind that different topics are differently easy for different people. Much like different methods are differently easy to grasp for different people. Someone who is inclined towards, say, computer science or physics will really struggle with qualitative methods. As for thinking up something original, learning that is part of becoming a PhD. You're not expected to have that skill perfected from the start. The point is that you specialize on a subject to the extent that you essentially reach the "frontier" of knowledge.
