摘要
This short intervention provides a snap shot of key concerns, developments, and challenges in the doctoral programs currently provided by Geography Departments in universities in the United States. It profiles overarching trends in recruitment and graduations, charts the standard routes students navigate through, documents the ever more systematic effort to provide greater professionalization for students and reflects upon the ramifications of the economic recession for doctoral students.
