Bachelor's Degree
The PhD program with a focus on Medieval Studies mandates completion of 52 credit hours, comprehensive exams covering three medieval studies disciplines, proficiency in a foreign language, and a dissertation. Most PhD candidates enter the program having recently earned a Master's degree in English, typically with over 30 semester hours completed. Although the English department permits transferring up to 24 of these hours toward the PhD, the Medieval Studies concentration usually restricts transferable credits to eleven due to its specific course requirements.
