I'm working toward a PhD in Political Science. My concentration is International Relations, and I'd prefer to teach at a large research university. I know about how much faculty members in my field earn, but, frankly...I'm a little worried about being able to pay off my student loans.
If you've earned your PhD, or if you have information about this topic, what do you think is a reasonable amount of debt to have after you get your PhD? Can you reasonably pay it off on a professor's salary?
I know that it would depend on the amount of debt and how much the position pays, but if you can share your experiences, I'd be appreciative. Thanks.
