If mobility is everything, how can we limit our research? In this episode, Michael Vsemirnov, a former Master’s student in the Mobility Studies program and now a PhD student, told us about his academic journey and how he reinterpreted the term mobility, using it as a lens to study historical processes. We also discussed the possibilities and opportunities for Mobility Studies scholars and some tips and insights on the crafting and writing process of a Master’s thesis and a PhD proposal.
This episode may be of particular interest to current students and those preparing their dissertations.
