Online info session for female students about PhD programmes

After the great interest in last year’s session, I will again hold an informal zoom session for female political sciences students who are potentially considering pursuing a PhD.

The goals of this 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. Dr. Stefanie Walter (University of Zürich) and postdoctoral researcher Dr. Anna-Lena Hönig, who received her PhD from the University of Mannheim last year, 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. Note that we will not provide information about specific funding programmes.

Date: 23 February 2022, 10am-11am CET.

Interested? -> Please email us at info4female.students@uni-mannheim.de by 20 February and 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!
