MSc Research for ID plus Mphil/PhD -Research Project: Transformation of the Tanzanian Working Class: From Ujamaa to Neoliberalism

硕士部分：在攻读硕士期间，我承担了与项目相关的各种模块，为承担本研究项目提供了学术基础。这意味着对定性和定量研究方法进行培训，以及研究特定领域的模块。硕士学位的最后一部分是就博士研究的相关主题撰写一篇论文，这同时促进了我对该主题的理解，并使我能够与对博士阶段有帮助的个人建立相关的联系。博士第一年：博士第一年主要致力于发展高级文献回顾，并制定研究的理论背景和关于坦桑尼亚的具体著作。在文献调研的基础上，我将缩小研究范围(如有必要)，并撰写一篇升级论文。在此期间，我还将开始田野工作的准备工作。我还将向Ubel DTP申请困难的语言培训拨款，以便在坦桑尼亚进行语言练习--我是否能够获得这将影响博士的具体时间表。博士学位的第二年：我在第二年的活动将围绕实地考察进行，目前估计需要8个月的时间。实地考察预计将在第二年开始时进行(取决于语言培训)，并将在坦桑尼亚的达累斯萨拉姆进行。实地考察工作基于三种类型的活动：1)半结构化访谈(这实际上意味着我将有一些流动性)；2)档案研究(档案馆在达累斯加州)；3)媒体调查(很可能也是基于档案馆)。在达累斯萨拉姆度过的八个月将是连续的，但也包括可能在达累斯萨拉姆以外的(短期)外部合作。第二年的最后一部分将以伦敦为基地，我将处理数据分析。博士第三年：在最后一年，我将专注于密集的写作，做出任何必要的调整，并根据反馈改进论文。

The MSc Component:During the MSc I have undertaken various modules which relate to the project and provide the academic grounding for undertaking this research project. This has meant training in both qualitative and quantitative research methods, as well as, studying area-specific modules. The final part of the MSc is writing a dissertation on a related topic to the PhD research which simultaneously advances my understanding of the topic and allows me to create relevant connections with individuals who are instrumental to the PhD phase.First year of the PhD:The first year of the PhD is largely concerned with developing an advanced literature review and mapping out both the theoretical background of the research and the specific writings on Tanzania. Based on the survey of literature, I will narrow down (if necessary) the research question and write an upgrade paper. I will also start preparations for fieldwork during this period. I will also apply for a difficult language training grant from UBEL DTP, in order to have language practice in Tanzania - whether I will be able to get this will influence the specific timeline of the PhD.The second year of the PhD:My activities during the second year will be structured around fieldwork which is currently estimated to take 8 months. The fieldwork is expected to take place at the start of the second year (depending on language training) and will take place in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The fieldwork is based on three types of activities: 1) Semi-structured interviews (which in practice means that there will be some mobility on my behalf); 2) Archival research (The archives are in Dar); 3) Media survey (Most probably also based on archives). The eight month period spent in Dar es Salaam will be continuous but also includes the possibility of (short) external collaborations which might be outside of Dar. The last part of the second year will be based in London and I will deal with data analysis.The third year of the PhD:In the final year I will focus on an intensive write-up, make any adjustments needed and improve the thesis based on feedback.
