PGR Matters Podcast

2: Beginning at the End with Dr Maria Tsimpiri


Listen Later

In this second episode of the Postgraduate Research Matters podcast, we hear from Dr Maria Tsimpiri, who was interviewed in December 2023 about her doctoral experience and life and work after the PhD. Maria's involvement in PGR representation through the Graduate School Student Forum (GSSF) while a PhD candidate, as well as her active participation in the Courage Project, shaped her interest in career prospects towards PGR matters as a whole.

This interview focuses on life immediately after a research degree, with staff member, Dr Maria Tsimpiri, who holds a PhD in Linguistics from the University of East Anglia. The conversation covers a number of questions: 

  1. Is it worth getting involved in initiatives within the University that aren’t related to your research? 
  2. How does your relationship with a research degree change over time? 
  3. What can you learn from working in non-academic positions in a university?
