This roundtable will be held as a focus group, with George Hunt, psychologist and experienced consumer research moderator, acting as facilitator. This format will simultaneously demonstrate some of the techniques of data creation used within business circles while also providing a novel means for the anthropologists (who work in design, CPG, hi- tech, healthcare, automotive, marketing – both inside and outside corporations) to present what business/industry means to them, the muses they bring to their work, and to discuss what they are trying to accomplish in their work as anthropologists in business realms. M&Ms will be served.

TAYLOR, Nicole (SAR) Preparing PhD Students for Non-Academic Careers. Are PhD programs in arts and sciences addressing the needs of students seeking non-academic career paths?
