A completed PhD education qualifies for research of international standard and for other work in society where scientific insight and analytical thinking are required. Many PhD graduates work in research and teaching at universities or at research institutes. Furthermore, those with a doctorate are often sought after in the business sector and public enterprises for their analytical skills and ability to solve complex problems. Others choose to start their own business, where they can truly utilize their skills in innovation and entrepreneurship.
