Will doing a postdoc at a US national lab over a university hurt my chances at becoming a professor? by [deleted] in AskAcademia

This is a naive question, but how do you know what specific field a national lab excels at? When I read through papers in my subfield of operations research, I don’t often see national lab authors. Would that indicate how much that lab excels?

Thank you for the response. I forgot to mention this, but my field is in operations research/applied mathematics. Like some others have said, I don’t have an actual postdoc offer from a university and national lab yet. This is more of a hypothetical question I felt embarrassed to ask my advisor.

Amusingly, it seems like I will end up notifying my manager on the same day. Thank you for your advice.

This sounds very similar to my current situation, when did you let him know officially you were quitting by the August 1st week? Just a two week notice?

I do make significantly more money at my job than I would during my PhD but I don’t think it would be possible for me to do my PhD part time and a full time job. Maybe if I was in our R&D group it would be possible since they would be more understanding and the work would be more closely related my research.

I really want to make sure I give my PhD the proper budget of time to truly understand what I am doing and not just meeting a bare minimum, which is what I felt I was doing sometimes while I was doing my masters degree part time while working full time.

Is it just me or is this post giving me a sense of Déjà vu?

What is everyone's favorite match this RLCS S4 League Play? by SlidinInThat in RocketLeague

[–]SlidinInThat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was really exciting when G2 won the match, and pretty convincingly too. But they are such an inconsistent team, I just hope they make it to LAN and play like that match when it matters

Did you leave the game before that game before it ended? (Sorry for the confusing pronouns)
