Hi Everyone,
I was wondering what thoughts were out there about number of publications while one is pursuing a PhD. I have had some professors tell us that PhD students should publishing 5 papers a year while they are in school and I have had others that did not stress that number at all but rather put more emphasis on the thesis. I already have my own plans regarding "side projects" not involving my thesis work... I was just curious what other views are out there.
Thanks,
Greg
