Considering Graduate School in the Humanities - Alumnae Career Conversation

You’re invited to join Dr. Emily Raymundo (’10) who received her Ph.D. in American Studies and Ethnicity at the University of Southern California in 2017 for this casual, small group conversation about graduate school in the humanities. She will discuss the realities, financial, emotional, and otherwise, of attending graduate school in the humanities, addressing common questions about whether M.A.s (and Ph.D.s!) are worth it, what graduate education is like on a day-to-day basis, what employment prospects are like for humanities Ph.D.s, and what the costs and benefits are of interdisciplinary programs like American Studies, Ethnic Studies, and Gender Studies in comparison to traditional departments like English and History.
