English PhD Alumni Panel: DH and Other Career Pathways

Panelists:

-Sarah Connell (PhD '14), Assistant Director for the Women Writers Project and for the NULab Center for Texts, Maps, and Networks

-Kasra Ghorbaninejad (PhD '18), Relational Database Manager at the University of Victoria (a non-US citizen who has navigated both US and international employment)

Moderated by: Professor Erika Boeckeler

This panel will be dedicated to exploring career pathways in Digital Humanities and other paths, as part of the job placement programming series organized by English Department placement officer Erika Boeckeler and graduate program coordinator Heather Hardy. This panel, featuring Sarah Connell and Kasra Ghorbaninejad, is the second in our October series. These panels are a great opportunity to hear from alumni on how they navigated the job search process and what their career paths have been like since graduating. We will have at least one international alum in each panel. You do not have to be on the job market currently to attend or benefit from these events--all are welcome, including current students, instructors, and faculty advisors.

Stay tuned for more details on our MA and undergrad alumni panels, happening later this month.
