Spill the tea - we want to hear from you!

Embarking on a PhD can be a journey fraught with decisions, but none more crucial than the choice of a supervisor. In the grand finale of our incongruent series, we reach the climax of my doctoral tale, navigating the academic landscapes of Glasgow, Exeter, Westminster, and Portsmouth to uncover a mentor who will not only steer my research ship but also be the beacon for future groundbreaking studies. 

Switching gears, we tackle the oft-overlooked reality of the academic wallet, scrutinizing UK lecturer salaries through the lens of the single-pay spine and dissecting the financial anatomy of deductions and location-based variances -  contrasting the monetary climates of Scotland and London.
