    It's not uncommon for Harvard to hire its own PhD graduates as faculty members. It's a great way to keep the knowledge and expertise within the university. Plus, it helps to create a strong sense of community and continuity."

    there are few reasons:

    Continuity of knowledge

    strong sense of community

    Talent pool

    While it's not guaranteed that every Harvard PhD graduate will be offered a faculty position, it's a common pathway for many aspiring academics.This means that students who have completed their doctoral degrees at Harvard often have the opportunity to return as professors and teach the next generation of scholars.
