    WILL THERE BE JOBS? (Job prospects)

    "Do not pass go, go directly to Ph.D."
    --Dr. Josh Keyes, "The Core"

    If you are considering a Ph.D. in the humanities but can't stop worrying about your career prospects, there is some good news to go along with the farrago of grim news you may have been hearing lately. We've got the lowdown on academic prospects for Ph.D.'s in government, psychology, writing, teaching, and more. In addition, employers outside of academia are increasingly looking for individuals with sophisticated analytic skills, opening up a much wider range of job options than ever before for Ph.D.'s.

    Where will your Ph.D. take you?

    MAD FOR SCIENTISTS (Job opportunities)

    If you spent your college years in the lab, there is good news for you too. The bad news first: Scientists haven't completely escaped the economic downturn. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies aren't recruiting as aggressively as they had been, industry labs have shut down, and some cash-strapped universities aren't hiring at all. However, despite the slowdown, science Ph.D.'s "have too many skills not to find a position," says Eleanor Babco, the executive director of the nonprofit Commission on Professionals in Science and Technology. From academia to patent law, there are positions for people like you.

    What does the job outlook look like?
