The Bielefeld Graduate School in History and Sociology, in which I received my PhD in 2010, recently conducted an interview with Prof. Dorothee Wilm and myself on our experiences on the academic career path.
Parts of the interview and the subsequent discussion with current PhD students at the BGHS have been turned into a blog post titled
Costs and rewards on the path to a professorship
on their website.
