Session Description:
The avenues of access for recent PhDs are shrinking. With the academy becoming "far less accessible for aspiring college professors," we need to "reverse this trend" and "advance the discussion of alternative career paths for PhDs" (Bérubé). This roundtable opens up a discussion of how upcoming or recent PhDs can successfully navigate the challenging job market.
