DYNAMICS is a joint PhD Program of Humboldt-University Berlin and the Hertie School studying the relationship between demographic change, democracy and public policy
Last week we ran the first “Career Planning Workshop for Within and Outside Academia” for female and non-binary doctoral researchers — a space to openly discuss career goals and skills.

Thanks to everyone who took part and contributed. More to come.

Great to have DYNAMICS alumnus Tom Arend with us this week as part of our "Life After PhD" series!

Tom offered our PhD researchers valuable behind-the-scenes insights into his work as a researcher at the OECD —and what a career in international organizations can look like with a PhD
