Many, many years ago life was different. I joined a huge industrial research lab, a bit like Bell Labs, with just a standard Physics degree. Almost on Day One, I was tasked to investigate, model and design communications protocols and topologies for telephone networks in mountainous areas. My colleagues were tasked immediately with say working on novel fibre optic materials or designing ultra high power semiconductors. No training period : just a belief from the lab that they could be handed major tasks just after leaving University. I doubt that it like that today.
@@DrAndyStapleton Thank you so much! Just so that you know, I am a PhD student and your video have been incredibly helpful to me, thanks a lot for your work!!!!
Hii Dr. Andy! Lovely video and content. Manifested this probably! I have a question, as a person in SciComm now, what would you suggest to a third-year PhD scholar to do in order to pursue SciComm as a career? how to sort of make an identity online?

Yep, today you need to have some proven experience before getting your degree otherwise you end up unemployed or at McDonalds flipping burgers
What about a Plan D, where you want to do research in industry?
Transferable Skills First before Research Skills
To be honest, I really would like to do side hustle on internet, while I am doing PhD
Starting my PhD next month… thanks for this video ❤
Congratulations! Where if I may ask please?
Really precious informations. Thank you!
You always say links in the description but I can never find them :(
My bad - it is there now!
We can't see the link in the discription.

Additionally, It's better to develop network and skills via volunteering in clubs and societies.
