Description

"Envisioning the Future of Doctoral Education is a collection of essays commissioned for the Carnegie Initiative on the Doctorate. The question posed to the essayists in this volume was "If you could start de novo, what would be the best way to structure doctoral education in your field to prepare stewards of the discipline?" The authors of the essays are respected thinkers, researchers, and scholars who are experienced with and thoughtful about doctoral education." "Each of the book's essayists considers the goals and purposes of doctoral education in their particular field and offer new and invigorating ideas about the doctorate. Taken together, the essays in the volume provide opportunities to compare and contrast doctoral education among the disciplines. The essays provide ideas for fruitful practice, a perspective on doctoral education as a larger enterprise, and visions of what is possible for the future."--Jacket.
