PhD candidates must complete a minimum of seven English courses along with two additional courses from outside the Department that align with their personal academic focus. At least one of these nine courses must focus significantly on Hawaii, Asia, or the Pacific region. The program also includes three key requirements: area examinations, an oral comprehensive exam/prospectus defense, and the dissertation. Those enrolled in the Creative Writing PhD track will produce a creative dissertation accompanied by a critical analysis. Students are advised to view these components as interconnected elements of their professional development.
