PhD so this is a critical issue if we are to reach gender balance at our universities.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.0pt">In a project at the Faculty of Science, Lund University, we investigated whether PhD students of different genders alter their career plans differently during the doctoral studies. Change per
se is not a ‘failure’ but institutional practices and culture may impact individuals and groups differently. This was a first attempt to understand the career motivations and potential obstacles for all doctoral students at the faculty. I will present the
project results and then we open up for a joint discussion on how to move forward.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
