A York University professor has coined the term « redirection » to reflect the new, emerging stage of one’s career that occurs after traditional retirement.

It’s possible for academics to continue to work past the traditional retirement age of 65, but they’re going to want to quit at some point, and it’s never too soon to start planning for an active and productive post-retirement life, says Suzanne Cook, a York University professor. “People ...

A group of migration scholars share how the pandemic is impacting both their personal and work lives.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, what does it mean to study migration, to be an immigrant professor or an international student separated from family, to see so much we care about, work on, and live in our lives come to a screeching halt? We pause. We ask important questions. Alison...

With a little lead time and institutional support, professors can make great online courses.

Currently, I am suffering from analysis paralysis about teaching online. I’m thinking about it; I have good ideas, but I am a little reluctant to act. Having just gone through a rough transition in another course last semester due to the pandemic, I know that my students were fairly forgiving of t...

Three grads share their paths leading to careers outside of the academy.

Responding to an inner call to explore a fresh facet of your professional identity means shedding some “shoulds.”

What do you do when you start to feel “meh” about your profession? I’m not talking about a desire to retire or change jobs, but rather about a niggling feeling that you may no longer want to pursue the work you’ve been doing for years, possibly decades. For me, that question started bubbl...

Pour suivre sa voix intérieure et explorer une nouvelle facette de son identité professionnelle, il faut se débarrasser de certaines pensées directives.

Que fait-on quand on commence à manquer de motivation face à sa profession? Je ne fais pas référence à un désir de prendre sa retraite ou de changer d’emploi, mais à un sentiment qui s’installe où l’on n’a plus envie de poursuivre le même travail que l’on fait depuis des années, ...
