Completing a DPhil at Oxford opens up a wide range of opportunities and career paths, but making the right choice can be a daunting process. It can be helpful to have an idea of the career options available to you, even at the stage of deciding which project to choose when applying to study.

We asked some former students to speak candidly about both their experiences during their DPhil in RDM and what happened next for them, including career, family and other life events.
