The New PhD: How to Build a Better Graduate Education by Leonard Cassuto
Requirements: .PDF reader, 23.0 MB
Overview: For too many students, today’s PhD is a bridge to nowhere. Imagine an entering cohort of eight doctoral students. By current statistics, four of the eight―50%!―will not complete the degree. Of the other four, two will never secure full-time academic positions. The remaining pair will find full-time teaching jobs, likely at teaching-intensive institutions. And maybe, just maybe, one of them will garner a position at a research university like the one where those eight students began graduate school. But all eight members of that original group will be trained according to the needs of that single one of them who might snag a job at a research university. Graduate school has been preparing students for jobs that don’t exist―and preparing them to want those jobs above all others.
