The transborder studies PhD program cultivates exceptional researchers and scholars who excel in transnational and cross-border settings.
Through interdisciplinary coursework, students build core expertise in border-related topics across fields like anthropology, history, political science, and gender studies.
Program faculty draw inspiration from the unique context of the U.S.-Mexico border region and its Chicano/Latino communities. ASU's borderland location and faculty specialization create an unparalleled learning environment. As globalization transforms local and international landscapes, the program now explores diverse border regions and migrant populations worldwide.
