31. The Hidden Benefits of Doing Your PhD Part-Time
10/23/23 • 21 min
Doing your PhD part-time can sometimes feel like an unwanted option for most scholars but it can be a lifeline for some of us as Scholarly Mamas®!
While it's not for everyone, there are so many hidden benefits of doing your PhD part-time and in this episode, I share a few of those with you, in case you're faced with the choice of whether to do your PhD full-time or part-time.
Of course, everyone's circumstances are different and it's important to remember that what works for one won't necessarily work for all, so please make an informed decision that suits your circumstances as appropriate.
