well, the article talks about doctoral candidates in the humanities (I think, I may have missed any non humanities candidates, I am too tired to read the article again right now). Perhpas doctoral candidates in the hard sciences/ engineering have more options?
- neilc 18y agoIn my experience, there is a pretty enormous difference between doctoral programs in the humanities and in science/engineering. For that matter, there's a big difference between doctoral programs in something like chemistry (or physics, I'd guess) vs. computer science.
- madcaptenor 18y agoAs far as the New York Times is considered, only the humanities exist. No, I'm not bitter. (I'm getting a PhD in math.)
- ninguem2 18y agoActually the article briefly mention that job postings are down 25% in the "American Mathematical Association's" (would that be the AMS?) "main job board" (would that be mathjobs.org?). I agree that the article is heavily slanted to the humanities though.
