In October of 2012, we set out to test a theory – that finding and locating accurate and up-to-date employment information about alumni was possible. Using digital research methods, we tracked career outcomes for history PhDs who graduated from four institutions. Our study was published in The Chronicle of Higher Education, and below are links to the graphs accompanying this study.
