About this book

Demystifies the academic career path with practical advice

With the number of people being awarded PhDs growing far more rapidly than the supply of academic jobs, those at an early-career stage must think strategically in order to be competitive and successful.

Navigating an Academic Career: A Brief Guide for PhD students, Post docs, and New Faculty is a concise and conversational manual that guides readers through starting their academic journey, surviving the demands of their first academic position, and thriving in academia and beyond.

Volume highlights include:

Firsthand perspective on the characteristics of a successful academic
Guidance on interviewing, negotiating, branding, and other essential soft skills
Tips for effective time management and writing high-impact research papers
Insights into developing leadership skills and mentoring others
