The Northern Nineteenth Century Network’s Victorian Studies Professionalisation Day, held at the University of York on 26th May 2015, aimed to give postgraduate Victorianists insights into various aspects of academia and careers. I was invited to speak on postdoctoral career paths – funding, fellowships, and some general advice on navigating the difficult post-PhD waters when you don’t go straight into a permanent job or fellowship. My talk was titled “Money and a Room of One’s Own: the transition from PhD to Postdoc” and the slides can be downloaded here:
