Despite the growing market in industry, government, and non-profits for anthropologists, and their evident success there, anthropology has no real framework for teaching students about the practical applications of anthropology. This pattern appears at all degree levels—bachelor's, master's, and PhD. With that in mind, the Anthropology Career Readiness Network set out to investigate and identify some of the main gaps in academic training with respect to practice. Using Delphi surveys, we queried practitioners about perceived gaps in their training. The results showed that respondents felt quite underprepared in terms of job search strategies. They also lacked skills in transferring anthropology to workplace settings and explaining the value of their discipline to people in those settings. Although sobering on one level, our study points to a clear path ahead for curriculum development. The Network continues to work with practitioners, students, and instructors to build our collective capacity to prepare people to enter the workplace of their choice and to thrive there.

您的学生的职业准备如何?关于我们正在(不)教授人类学学生什么的反思

尽管工业界、政府和非营利组织对人类学家的市场不断增长,并且人类学在这些领域取得了明显的成功,但人类学并没有真正的框架来教授学生人类学的实际应用。这种模式出现在所有学位级别——学士、硕士和博士。考虑到这一点,人类学职业准备网络着手调查并确定学术培训与实践方面的一些主要差距。通过德尔福调查,我们向从业者询问了他们在培训中感知到的差距。结果显示,受访者感觉自己在求职策略方面准备不足。他们还缺乏将人类学转移到工作场所以及向这些环境中的人们解释其学科价值的技能。尽管在某种程度上发人深省,但我们的研究为课程开发指明了一条清晰的道路。该网络继续与从业者、学生和教师合作,建设我们的集体能力,帮助人们做好进入自己选择的工作场所并在那里茁壮成长的准备。
