What are #altac and #postac, and how can a PhD prepare you for them?

Wednesday, May 1, 2013 - 12:30pm
The event will be held on Wednesday May 1, 12:30pm-3:30pm in room IB 390.

This panel discussion about alternatives to academia and post-academe will explore the current debates about #altac and #postac, including the long history of PhD-holders finding employment off the tenure track. The panelists are all PhDs who are employed or seeking employment outside of the tenure track, including Jen Polk, Philip Enros, and David Kideckel.
