The Reimagined PhD Summary

The Reimagined PhD: Navigating 21st Century Humanities Education by Leanne M Horinko

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 PhD 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 PhD 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.

The Reimagined PhD Reviews

This book provides an invaluable resource for humanities PhDs struggling to find their way in an incredibly challenging graduate school climate. This is a necessary book that I recommend enthusiastically to students and faculty members alike. -- Greg M. Colon Semenza * Professor of English, University of Connecticut, Storrs *
This powerful collection reveals many facets of the humanities PhD in the 21st Century. The editors and authors beckon readers to attune themselves to engrained disciplinary biases that stifle opportunity and innovation, and to remember that the well-worn narratives about challenges in the humanities often obscure local possibilities. -- Julie R. Posselt * author of Inside Graduate Admissions: Merit, Diversity, and Faculty Gatekeeping *
