Episode 3: From PhD to Career, with Lucy Michael Irish Society

    • Social Sciences

The path from PhD to career is generally not a simple one. It is also a journey that we often ignore as we fight to get to the finish. In this episode Dr. Lucy Michael expands our thinking on the opportunities that exist after finishing a PhD. An academic post may be calling to you, but these may not be all they are cracked up to be, and this dream can put blinkers on, distracting from a range of other possibilities, that are just waiting to be seized.

Lucy Michael runs 'Lucy Michael, Research, Training and Consultancy', with more details at: http://lucymichael.ie. She is an expert on Integration, Diversity and Equality, and is a member of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission.
