Season One: Looking Back at the Doctorate

In season one of our podcast, we interviewed former Freie Universität doctoral students and talked about their experiences with their doctoral project and their career paths after finishing the doctorate. We’ll hear about the choices they made and how they navigated difficult decisions as well as what they learned along the way. We will likely be adding a few bonus episodes after the five below are released, so keep an eye on this site for updates!
