Make a Better PhD Graduate

The employments in many countries are not proportionate to PhD graduates. Since, most of the PhD graduates expect academic careers. Whereas, one-fourth of PhD graduates could be faculty member and it means that many PhD graduates will be unemployment each year. This problem not only in Iran but also in many countries is a fundamental problem. In this regard, Nature journal published an article entitled “How to build a better PhD” to deal with the causes and solutions of the problem. This article summarized and translated that article published in Nature journal. In this paper, five solutions for improving employment of PhD graduates are offered.
