Phi Alpha Theta will continue its series “So, You Want to Be a Historian?” with its next forum: “So, You Want to Get a Ph.D.?” on Thursday, November 20 at 1 pm in the History Conference Room. Joe Faykosh, current Ph.D. student, will lead a discussion on both applying (how to identify potential programs, crafting statements of purpose/research philosophy, putting together your CV, etc) and the financial/social/professional realities of being a doctoral student.

All are welcome to attend; food and drink will be provided!

Phi Alpha Theta’s Professionalism Forum “So, You Want to Be a Historian?” previously covered presenting at conferences, with future sessions planned for grant-writing, preparing for the job market, public history opportunities, and teaching your own class.
