The LLILAS PhD program offers a adaptable yet demanding curriculum designed for outstanding students needing interdisciplinary research approaches. Doctoral candidates must blend academic excellence with real-world relevance, gaining both deep subject mastery and versatile skills for careers beyond academia - including private industry, government, and nonprofit sectors. The LLILAS Admissions Committee evaluates all doctoral applications, seeking candidates who clearly articulate why they require an interdisciplinary doctorate over traditional discipline-specific PhDs, along with well-defined dissertation research plans.
