Produktinformationen zu „Academia and the World Beyond (PDF)“

A common question posed to PhD students from friends and family is, "What will you do aft er?" But many students are too focused on the PhD itself and have not yet had a chance to sufficiently think about post-PhD life. Th is book is a collection of 22 interviews with those have completed a PhD and then are now in an academic position or another career path. In either case, they have all been successful and have a multitude of insights to share with those who are interested in considering a variety of careers. Academic careers share many commonalities with many non-academic careers, with skills learned within academia being valuable in other career paths as well. Nearly all the individuals interviewed here have been on the job market recently and understand today's job climate. No other book on the market includes the diversity of perspectives presented here. In particular, the focus on psychology and neuroscience draws from a variety of individuals that have similar training buthave nonetheless taken divergent paths.
