The graduate program in philosophy at the University of Pittsburgh attracts students from all over the world and prepares them for a diverse range of careers within and beyond the academy. Below is a list of career outcomes for all students who were awarded a PhD through the program. "Initial Career Outcome" refers to first career outcome with the following possible exception: if a student received temporary employment at the University of Pittsburgh department of Philosophy immediately following their PhD, but has gone on to a new career, the latter career outcome is listed as the initial outcome. (It should be noted, especially of recently graduating classes, that it is not uncommon for students to complete their PhD and take a visiting lectureship in the department before seeking employment outside the university.) Though every student granted a PhD has an entry, we are continuously in the process of updating records, especially for students from earlier years. Please let the webmaster know if you catch any mistakes or have any updates.
