A #PhD journey extends far beyond a #thesis and a degree. This session reflects on the realities of #doctoral research—from identifying meaningful research questions and building a research identity to #publications, rejections, and revisions. It also explores the transition from research scholar to #academician, including stepping into teaching with zero prior experience and navigating multiple academic responsibilities. More importantly, it reflects on resilience, uncertainty, self-doubt, growth, and balancing different roles along the way.
A conversation about #research, #academia, challenges, and the journey beyond.
