Revolutionizing the way universities guide students toward fulfilling careers.

HI THERE. WE’RE NEXT DRAFT LLC

Tailored career support for grad students. Collaborative solutions for universities.

At Next Draft, we’re focused on holistic mentoring. We work directly with universities to help grad students think creatively about their futures and provide resources to help them get there.

OUR SERVICES

Help students unlock the full potential of their graduate education.

Workshops for Graduate Students

Our goal is simple: help students make informed decisions about their own futures. We support students to explore their options without fear of judgment or failure—whether the path ahead is in or outside of academia.


Resources for Success

We are designing resources that help graduate students explore their career options. From addressing common myths to demystifying the job search process, these resources are free for you to download and use. If you find them useful, please share them with your colleagues!


Mentor Matching Program

We are building a network of mentors who have successfully transitioned from PhD to career from various disciplines. We believe nothing can build confidence like receiving guidance and support from those who understand your struggles and concerns.


Workshops for Faculty

Faculty at research universities do not always know how to support their students in exploring the pathways to a career outside of academia. What does effective mentorship look like? Why support students through a wide range of career options?


OUR MISSION

From the nuts and bolts of a career transition to networking with industry professionals, we encourage students to explore their next draft.

What can you do with a PhD?
