In summer 2023, Humanities Without Walls will hold a summer workshop for humanities doctoral students interested in learning how to use their skills and training for careers in the private sector such as nonprofit organizations, media or arts administration.

The summer event — which includes workshops, talks and site visits, will take place at the University of Michigan's Institute for the Humanities in Ann Arbor.
