This project builds on what was learned from survey data and consultations with program leadership during the University of Arizona’s participation in the CGS PhD Career Pathways project, as well as from recent focus groups and surveys of humanities PhD students and faculty.
The Graduate Center is offering several avenues for graduate professional development programs ranging from a one-credit course, skill-building workshops, one-on-one career consulting, graduate student peer-led programming, graduate faculty and staff career development training, and alumni career panels.
To maximize access, participation, and reach to diverse populations, all activities are offered free of charge, on–line, and in–person.
