The Chronicle of Higher Education reports that the attrition rate for American Ph.D. programmes is at an all-time high, between 40% and 50% (higher for women and minorities). Of those who finish, only one in three will secure tenure-track jobs. These statistics highlight waste: of millions of dollars by universities and of time and energy by students. Rather than teaching graduate students how to be graduate students, then, the guide prepares them for what they really seek: a successful academic career.Geology, StructuralEducationEducation, HigherProfessional educationVocational educationStructural Geologyhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/G17040Education, generalhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O00000Higher Educationhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O36000Professional & Vocational Educationhttp://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/O35000Geology, Structural.Education.Education, Higher.Professional education.Vocational education.Structural Geology.Education, general.Higher Education.Professional & Vocational Education.378.1/55Semenza Gregory M.
