Our Mission

To give PhDs the power to navigate their environments, so that we can make the PhD a more empowered career path.

Our Story

PhD Source was started in 2018 to give back to the PhD and postdoc community. After hundreds of interview with PhDs, networking expos, and career fairs, we have been striving to give back to all of the PhDs.

Over the years, we have accumulated the knowledge that your advisor can’t give you. We know the warning signs of bad labs, advisors, and universities. We know when you can fix these and when you can’t fix them. We know what jobs certain personalities are geared towards and what jobs certain values might drive you into. Finally, we have the tools to create a better PhD career curriculum.
