Craufurd Goodwin and Graduate Education

History of Political Economy, 2019, vol. 51, issue 1, 169-172

Abstract: Craufurd Goodwin’s sense that the Graduate School was not adequately preparing its doctoral students for academic careers in a variety of institutions led to both a local and a national refocusing of efforts. The local effort produced a best-selling book, The Academic’s Handbook. The national effort culminated in the Preparing Future Faculty program involving some 300 schools across the country. Both were attempts to acculturate doctoral students to faculty life in different academic settings.

Keywords: broader mission of graduate schools; better preparing future faculty; providing on-campus experience at a variety of local schools (search for similar items in EconPapers)
