The new issue of University Affairs features an article on the TRaCE project, which is a one-year experiment in data gathering and community building among PhDs in the humanities. The 4 goals of this project are to:
(1) track humanities PhDs;
(2) report on where they are, whether inside or outside the academy, and what they have achieved;
(3) connect them with each other and with faculty and students inside the academy;
(4) sponsor exchanges of knowledge among PhD students, faculty and PhD grads who are pursuing careers in non-academic sectors.
The article provides links to more detail on the Trace project, and a new 5-year project, Trace 2.0, which will reach out to PhDs in the social sciences, as well as MFAs and PhDs in the arts.
