Mum, PhD is an online community for women combining academic life and motherhood (now or in the future).

You don't have to be a mum right now to join.

We welcome the participation of women who are trying to conceive, as well as women who are considering how to incorporate future motherhood into their academic career plans.

Likewise, we welcome the participation of PhD scholars and women considering embarking on a PhD.

Mum, PhD is a safe and respectful environment for sharing experiences, giving and receiving support, exchanging knowledge, engaging in debates, venting and finding solutions.

Our community uses a discussion forum as our platform. You need to sign up to access the forum. This ensures that our discussions are kept within the community.
