ABOUT L. MAREN WOOD
I\'m an entrepreneur and educator who support universities in preparing graduate students and PhDs to thrive in today\'s fast-paced economy. I\'ve led a team of experts to build digital, scalable, solutions that allow graduate schools and career centers to provide high-quality, self-paced, courses and curriculum to students on their campus, so that students learn how to effectively job search in and beyond the academy. As a leader in graduate student professional development, I serve as an external advisor to the Council of Graduate Schools Humanities Advisory Committee, and ETS Graduate Education Advisory Council. My research has been published in peer-reviewed books, and in leading industry publications including The Chronicle of Higher Education and Inside Higher Ed.
