Dear All, I would be grateful if you could forward the following information to your MA students: Together with Prof. Dr. Stefanie Walter (University of Zürich) and Dr. Anna-Lena Hönig (University of Konstanz), I am organising an online informal info session for female students who are potentially considering pursuing a PhD in political science. 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. We will discuss: • what to consider when deciding to pursue a PhD, incl. pros & cons • 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. To register for this free online event, please send an email to info4female.students@uni-mannheim.de <mailto:info4female.students@uni-mannheim.de> by 20 February with the name of the University of your MA degree.
