A Phd Is Not Enough
Despite your graduate education, brainpower, and technical prowess,
your career in scientific research is far from assured. Permanent
positions are scarce, science survival is rarely part of formal graduate
training, and a good mentor is hard to find.
In A Ph.D. Is Not Enough!,
physicist Peter J. Feibelman lays out a rational path to a fulfilling
long-term research career. He offers sound advice on selecting a thesis
or postdoctoral adviser; choosing among research jobs in academia,
government laboratories, and industry; preparing for an employment
interview; and defining a research program. The guidance offered in A Ph.D. Is Not Enough!
will help you make your oral presentations more effective, your journal
articles more compelling, and your grant proposals more successful.
