ASA Survey of Recent Ph.D Recipients

RECENT ALUM:  Each year, the American Studies Association conducts a survey of recent Ph.D. recipients’ immediate employment and career plans. Doctoral degree recipients are invited to participate in the survey as well as submit abstracts of their dissertations. This survey has been recorded since 1996-1997, and encompasses sources of funding received, time taken to completion, short-term and long-term employment and career plans.  The data received from this survey allows us to compile statistics, helps us to better understand trends in our field, and will enable us to make informed decisions about the needs of our members and future of the ASA. To take the survey, please visit: Dissertation Abstract Submission Form
Additionally, the survey invites you to also submit an abstract of your recently completed dissertation.  These abstracts will be entered into a database maintained on our website, which features abstracts of American Studies dissertations all the way back to 1986. The database is currently being configured for our new website and is expected to be made public by the end of 2017.
