Long seen as proving grounds for professors, PhD programs have
begun to shed this singular sense of mission. Prompted by poor
placement numbers and guided by the efforts of academic
organizations, administrators and faculty are beginning to
feel called to equip students for a range of careers.
Yet, graduate students, faculty, and administrators
often feel ill-prepared for this pivot. The Reimagined
PhDÂ assembles an array of professionals to address this
difficult issue. The contributors show that students, faculty, and
administrators must collaborate in order to prepare the
21st century PhD for a wide range of careers. The volume also
undercuts the insidious notion that career preparation is a zero
sum game in which time spent preparing for alternate careers
detracts from professorial training. In doing so, The
Reimagined PhDÂ normalizes the multiple career paths open to
PhD students, while providing practical advice geared to help
students, faculty, and administrators
incorporate professional skills into graduate training,
build career networks, and prepare PhDs for a variety
of careers. Â
