== Course Design & Resources == I'm designing this class as a "workshop based class" built around the preparing for the job markets. that everybody will be developing as part of the course. There will be readings and weekly assignments but these are almost exclusively in the service of helping everyone carry out their own preparation. Each week we will spend a good chunk of the class checking in everyone's projects. We will be reading material from the following books: * Vick, Julia Miller, Jennifer S. Furlong, and Rosanne Lurie. 2016. ''The Academic Job Search Handbook.'' Fifth edition. Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania Press. * Kelsky, Karen. 2015. ''The Professor Is in: The Essential Guide to Turning Your Ph.D. into a Job.'' New York, New York: Crown. * Basalla, Susan, and Maggie Debelius. 2014. ''βSo What Are You Going to Do with That?β: Finding Careers Outside Academia.'' Third Edition. Chicago, Illinois: University of Chicago Press. * Fruscione, Joseph, and Kelly J. Baker, eds. 2018. ''Succeeding Outside the Academy: Career Paths beyond the Humanities, Social Sciences, and STEM.'' Lawrence, Kansas: University Press of Kansas. * Caterine, Christopher L. 2020. ''Leaving Academia: A Practical Guide.'' Princeton: Princeton University Press. I'll be providing electronic copies of anything you're expected to read for the course but if you want to read the paper copies of anything, you should obviously go find copies of the books the book. Other good resources are: * [https://www.careereducation.columbia.edu/tips-resources Tips & Resources from Columbia University Center for Career Education] * [https://careers.uw.edu/graduate-students/ UW Career Resources for Graduate Students] * [https://academia.stackexchange.com Academia StackExchange] β a really excellent Q&A site devoted to these kinds of conversations
