Navigating Rejection in Academia

  • Zoom & Gamma 2 lunch room (map)

Rejection is an unavoidable part of academic life - whether it’s a rejected manuscript, an unsuccessful grant application, or job market setbacks. But while rejection is common, it can still feel deeply personal and discouraging. Why does rejection sting so much, and how can we navigate the emotions and self-doubt that come with it? In this seminar, we’ll explore how common rejection in academia is, the psychological impact of academic rejection, strategies for maintaining resilience, and ways to reframe setbacks as opportunities for growth.
