importance of topic for future research career


User: kimmy10 - 10 October 2017 08:03

Hi!

I am currently looking into PhD positions. I live in Sweden so here it is paid and an actual position. I am interested in education. I now found an interesting one which is about the design of a medical education program. I am just worried if this might be to specific. I am interested in medicine but my main interest is education. Could I still, after the Phd, research education in the broad sense or will i become an expert on medical education? Or will it be an expert on curriculum design? I want to continue in academia so I have the feeling the topic is really important, or is this not the case? I am just doubting if this matters or not. any comments are welcome.

Yours,
Kimmy

Have you talked to them? Medical Education is extremely vast, you could be concentrating on specific medical data, but the the underlying methodology/technology (software) could be applied to any subject. Ps how hard is to apply to study in Sweden?
