Graduate students work closely with their advisors, the Director of Graduate Studies, and the Placement Director to prepare for the job market. The Placement Director runs two job market workshops every year, which all graduate students are encouraged to attend, and supports candidates who are on the job market. Our recent Ph.D.s, going back 8 years, are listed below. The placement information is, to our knowledge, accurate. To make updates, please email us at colin.chamberlain@temple.edu.
