Professor Catherine Pickering

Some people commence their PhD with considerable professional and personal experiences. In this two hour workshop we will share experiences and information about the challenges and benefits for such candidates and how to design projects to both facilitate career transitioning as well as capitalize on existing knowledge and skills.

The workshop will start with some background about how many and who undertakes PhD with professional backgrounds, the experience of others, and strategies for designing the PhD to utilize such backgrounds as well as dealing with sometimes feeling of otherness.
