Beschrijving

In contemporary academia, overlapping crises — from the reliability of research to the precarity of researchers' careers — underscore significant inefficiencies and lack of sustainability in scientific practices. Many of these challenges are particularly evident in the experiences of early career researchers. In this webinar, Andrea Kis will reflect on some of these problem areas, drawing from her research on PhD candidates' career considerations and other related work.

Andrea Kis, a PhD candidate at TU Eindhoven, is passionate about understanding the experiences of researchers. Her work explores connections between psychological and environmental factors within academia, with a special focus on the sustainability of science and academic careers. Andrea obtained her MSc in Environmental Psychology at the University of Groningen, after being trained as a Behavioral Analyst, Information Scientist, and Designer. Her interdisciplinary approach and commitment to (social) sustainability are reflected in her active contributions to a range of projects within organizations such as FORRT, the Low Carbon Initiative and Social Safety groups, as well as science communication and policy advocacy connected to her own research.
