Online info session for female students about PhD programmes

I am organising an informal zoom session on 23 Feb 2021 at 10am CET for female political sciences students who are potentially considering pursuing a PhD.

The goals of this about one hour long session are:

  • to provide you with some basic information about the format of PhD programmes/positions (primarily in Europe)

  • to provide a save space for you to ask questions

  • to put you in a better position for making an informed choice.

Together with Prof. Catherine de Vries (Bocconi University) and a recent female PhD Graduate, we will discuss:

  • what to consider when deciding to pursue a PhD, incl. pros & cons of a PhD

  • how to look for a suitable PhD programme

and importantly try to answer your questions about pursuing a PhD in political science.


Interested? -> Please email us at info4female.students@uni-mannheim.de by 19 February. Please briefly mention whether and where you are enrolled in an MA programme. We will then send you the link to the Zoom room.

I look forward to hearing from you!
