A completed PhD prepares you for research at an international level, as well as any role that calls for scientific expertise and analytical thinking. Many graduates go on to research and teaching positions at universities, university colleges or research institutes. Those with a doctorate are also highly sought after in both the business and the public sector for their ability to analyse complex problems and think independently. Others choose to start their own business, where they can truly utilize their skills in innovation and entrepreneurship.
