Our Ph.D. program stands as a point of distinction. Students typically finish within three to five years based on their background, and our alumni have secured tenure-track positions at academic institutions. This success stems from the personalized mentorship between faculty and students, reflected in numerous co-authored publications and small, focused classes we provide.
Prospective students should examine recent M.A. Theses and Ph.D. Dissertation topics to understand faculty expertise and departmental focus areas.
To earn a Ph.D., candidates must fulfill coursework requirements, pass comprehensive exams, develop and defend a dissertation proposal, and successfully present their final dissertation. Specific degree criteria can be found in the graduate school handbook.
We highly recommend applicants consult with a potential faculty advisor in our Department before applying.
