The Spanish doctoral program demands broader academic scope than the Master's program, along with deeper focus in the chosen specialization area. Candidates must show thorough understanding of literature or linguistics and possess original research capabilities. For Ph.D. admission eligibility in Spanish, students need to either complete a graduate minor in another language or prove reading proficiency in one approved non-English, non-Spanish language. Any alternative arrangements require written approval from the Spanish graduate advisor and the doctoral committee.
Typically, Ph.D. candidates pursue a minor within the department from the specified areas, though they may combine internal and external courses with advisor approval. Graduate advisors can provide guidance on approved minor options. The Ph.D. minor requires completing 15 to 18 credit hours in approved subject areas.
