The wordle provides a summary of my
post ideas so far:
·
Attend conferences, the benefits far outweigh
any associated financial and time costs.
·
Create community with other doctoral students
·
Utilize your existing community as a source of
support
·
Be clear about the goals you have for your
dissertation study
·
Tend to relationships - familial, academic,
community/church, research, etc
Today rather than post new ideas, I
want to welcome your feedback and questions.
What questions would you like me to answer
during the month of March? What are some issues you wish to see covered in the
blog this month?
I'd like to hear about what the women you mentioned are doing with their degree, or in general, what are the paths taken other than teaching and research (or, more specifically within teaching and research).
ReplyDeleteThe ones I mentioned here are all in academia as faculty and faculty leaders (i.e. dean, program director). People have different reasons for undertaking the doctorate, some want to get into academia (whether as professors or administrators), others use their degrees leading non profits, national and international NGOs, government, etc. Non-academia educational institutions also higher doctorates, as do world bank and UN organizations.
