Profiles of Practice use personal narrative to describe several wide-ranging career possibilities for people with Ph.D.s in communication. This series helps people make job choices that will bring them both success and personal satisfaction. The profiles illuminate the types of job options available and the key characteristics and nuances of different kinds of jobs.
The series of articles is designed principally for new and recent Ph.D.s in the midst of making career decisions, but is also informative for people considering job changes later in their careers and those who are advising students about the various career options available.
