Children, Employment, and PhD
The new episode of the BGHS podcast “Chances and Challenges” is about how to juggle children, a doctorate and a career. Sabine Schäfer spoke to Sophie Borchelt, who has two primary school children, is doing her doctorate at the BGHS and works as the Coordinator for Internationalisation at the Faculty of Sociology. Sophie makes it clear that it's not always easy to reconcile all of this, but that it's worth it. Listen to the podcast here.
