Experiences of combining doctoral studies and everyday family life
Abstract
How to combine work and family life and find individually best solutions in everyday life, is a topical
and globally significant subject. In this article I immerse to how the under 40-year-old female doctoral
students with a family succeed in combining their important roles as a mother and a doctoral student
in their own everyday lives.
Many simultaneous challenges encounter in the everyday life of an under 40-year-old female doctoral
student with a family. In the examination I concentrate on the everyday challenges of the female
doctoral student, on the interface of the family and the doctoral studies and on the choices made in
everyday life.
