Description
Summary:The Self-Determined Doctorate presents narratives of doctoral students who enriched their journeys by taking charge. The authors - who studied in the United States, Sweden, and Australia - reflect on their transformative personal and professional journeys wherein they cultivated experiences of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Through boundless community support from sources beyond the academy and efforts to deepen relationships with peers and faculty, these doctoral students navigated uncertainty and ambiguity in their academic and personal lives as they worked to attain their degrees. In the process, they developed increased confidence in their subject expertise and their professional perspectives, leading to fruitful outcomes. Contributors are: Walter Butler, Ulrika Centerwall, Lettie Y. Conrad, Mark M. Diacopoulos, Kristen H. Gregory, Kara Kaufman, Karen F. Kaufmann, Clarence Maybee and Virginia M. Tucker.
