Geosciences (Geology) research proposal / Study plan for PhD or Masters Students
Program: PhD in Geosciences (Geology)
There is a very famous adage, “If you think education is expensive, and then try ignorance”. I could not agree more. I believe research is necessary to acquire data and formulate theories, but it is just as important to know how to apply those theories and use that data in the real world. To be competent and competitive I will require a PhD’s degree. A PhD’s degree will give me the up-to-date tools and knowledge that is the need of the hour.
It is after a good deal of self-evaluation that I have decided to pursue graduate studies in Department of Geology and National centre of Excellence in Geology University of Peshawar leading to a doctorate. This decision followed naturally after carefully considering my academic background, the areas of my interest, and my ultimate professional ambition, which is to pursue a research career, either as a teaching faculty member, or in a department of the industry.
My postgraduate education at the National Centre of Excellence in Geology University of Peshawar Pakistan has provided me with a strong and comprehensive background in Geological management. The curriculum included all the basic courses such as Applied Geology, Sedimentalogy, Biostratigraphy, Sequence Stratigraphy, Structure Geology, Geo Chronology and Palynofacies analysis.
I was highly impressed by the Geological Science and its vast applications in my BS and M.S studies. My special interest in Carbonate Sedimentalogy and Biostratigraphy .Taking this into concern, I publish research paper in international and national repute journals.
A good research career can only be built above the firm foundation of a good education. With my long term goal in mind, my immediate objective is to work towards a PhD in carbonate sedimentalogy Biostratigraphy and reservoir characterization of Paleocene age.
The Goal of my Ph.D is to detailed description of the microfacies and lithofacies association for reconstruction of depositional environment of the Paleocene age.
Integration of biostratigraphical and sedimentological data to reconstruct a chronostratigraphically constrained palaeo-environmental interpretation. Results will be presented in the form of chronostratigrphic charts, maps and cross sections.
The resulted data will be used to construct a sequence stratigraphic framework which will significantly reduce risk during exploration, appraisal and development.
Detail description of the Paleocene reservoir characteristics, outlining diagenetic overprints and modification of the depositional rock properties in a sequence stratigraphic framework. Therefore, the reservoir architecture and the controls on reservoir potential will be evaluated. The surface data will be compared with the subsurface to demonstrate the relationship between the surface and subsurface reservoir characteristics of the Paleocene age.
To determine the O-C-Sr isotope geochemistry to characterize the diagenetic fluids and trace the fluid pathway.
To determine the porosity and permeability distributuon of the Paleocene age which will determine the petrophysical (porosity and permeability) character of the Paleocene age limestone.
Having done my undergraduate and postgraduate studies at undoubtedly in the best institutions in Pakistan, I would consider it my privilege to be able to pursue my doctoral studies at your university and avail of the excellent infrastructural facilities and research opportunities it has to offer. I am sure that the stimulating academic environment and interaction with the distinguished faculty at your university will prove immensely fruitful and facilitate my development as an individual researcher in my field. I am confident that I would be able to make a positive contribution to on-going research work at your university.
I feel that with its comprehensive facilities and competent faculty doing quality research work in the field of Geosciences will be the ideal place for me to pursue graduate studies. The working atmosphere of a vigorously active department will be helpful in motivating me towards excellence.
In short, I believe that a good Ph.D program is an essential step for realizing my professional ambition of becoming a competent researcher. I also believe that I possess the motivation, intellectual ability and preparation to do justice to a demanding Ph.D program.
I, therefore, look forward to joining your department as a graduate student.
Caution - In the recruitment process, legitimate companies never charge a fee from candidates. If there are companies that charge for interviews, tests, ticket reservations, etc., it is better to avoid them because there are indications of fraud. Do not transfer any payments when applying for a job.
