I love this Fabienne! Thank you so much for giving us insight into the world of applying for a phd position and what life is like doing research for your own PhD. Marine acoustics seems like such a fun research field and I hope you’re able to share some of your findings with us later! I have a sister that might consider getting a PhD in the future and as for myself, I’ve been thinking about whether or not I should go to law school anytime soon. Just something I always wanted to do. Reading your story and the hard work it takes just makes me want to do it even more! It may be hard, but those long grueling journeys are always worth it! Thank you so much for sharing this! ❤️💪❤️❤️❤️❤️
This makes me so happy to hear, Khadejah. It is quite interesting how many people open up to me about more or less secretly considering (re-)turning to academia and a university degree. I think it's amazing. It shows how intrinsically curious and open beings we are. It is quite a lot of work and not all institutional aspects of academia might be to everyone's liking. But if your sister and who are drawn towards going deeper into a specific field, just nurture that little nudge and see where it leads the two of you. And if there is anything I can share because of already - stumbling - on that very path, I would be more than happy to do 🥰
Wow, thank you so much for this Fabienne! Just hearing your story and the obstacles you’ve faced going through academia just makes me want to do it even more lol. You certainly have a way of convincing people, haha! :)
