Debunking academia vs. industry myths: Be the entrepreneur of your own career
Thursday August 28th, 2025
5:30 pm - 6:30 pm (EST)
With Kaidi Wu, Academic Trailblazer

Less than a third of PhDs get tenure-track jobs. The vast majority of PhDs are left to figure out the labyrinth of a non-academic job market on their own. Yet, the industry job market is far from the panacea it was touted to be: intense competition, mass layoffs, dwindling job security, lack of intellectual rigor, lack of time freedom, discriminatory treatment of international job candidates. This talk will take an honest look at the challenges faced by PhDs in both academia and industry. We will explore ways to design a fulfilling career that provides financial stability for doing what you enjoy.
