They say if you want to change after you graduate you can, but really, you need to get some early wins as an Assistant Professor, and the best way to do that is by building on your dissertation work as directly as possible. Even so, this may be your best chance for choice for a while (if you’re advisor is open to the idea, at least). They say you can study anything you want for your Ph.D., but really you’re somewhat constrained by you advisor’s interests and what kinds of work they have funding for. But if you’re making a drastic change or even changing areas, then it’s probably not a good idea until you’re pretty senior. If you’re making a slight shift with a lot of overlap, sure no problem.
And I’m assuming we’re talking about someone in a typical tenure-track academic position… Here’s my take, which is just one opinion, so take it for what it’s worth….

This includes off-topic and unproductive discussion as well as rudeness.ĭisagreement is completely fine, encouraged even, when there are different perspectives to share. If a reasonable person wouldn't say it to a professor/colleague/conference speaker they don't know well, it's probably over the line. Both are better resources on those subjects.

Mods may delete posts which do not provide enough context. This might include, for example, your career stage, your subject discipline, the type of institution you're affiliated with, and/or the country you're in. Your post should comprise a question (albeit potentially an open-ended one) and must contain sufficient information to enable posters to provide an effective answer. Posts that will invoke critical thinking and healthy discussion are especially welcome.
