It offers a coherent synthesis of the empirically-based insights that arose from the experiences of 48 early career researchers, who were participants in a 10-year qualitative longitudinal research program. The book has the power to inform other researchers? conceptual and methodological approaches to the study of post-PhD career trajectories.  The authors draw on the conceptual lens of ?identity-trajectory?, which emerged from their research program, to examine the decision-making processes underpinning the careers of PhD graduates, whether contingent researchers and teachers, assistant professors within the academy or professionals elsewhere. The book highlights the role of personal agency in negotiating academic and non-academic work and careers within broader personal lives. It will be compelling reading for researchers and students working in the areas of Education and Sociology, particularly those with an interest in examining career development and decision-making. 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aHigher education 606 $aMaturation (Psychology) 606 $aCareer education 606 $aEducational sociology  606 $aEducation and sociology 606 $aEducation?Research 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O29000 606 $aHigher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000 606 $aPersonal Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O42010 606 $aCareer Skills$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O53020 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22070 606 $aResearch Methods in Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O54000 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 0$aHigher education. 615 0$aMaturation (Psychology). 615 0$aCareer education. 615 0$aEducational sociology . 615 0$aEducation and sociology. 615 0$aEducation?Research. 615 14$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aHigher Education. 615 24$aPersonal Development. 615 24$aCareer Skills. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aResearch Methods in Education. 676 $a306.43 700 $aMcAlpine$b Lynn$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058383 702 $aAmundsen$b Cheryl$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299530103321 996 $aIdentity-Trajectories of Early Career Researchers$92503266 997 $aUNINA
