PhD in Spanish and Portuguese/ PhD in African American Studies in New Haven United States | Yale University

African American Studies offers concentration options as either focused single-area or comparative studies. For instance, students might explore Caribbean or African American literature, pursue a joint degree comparing African American literature with the English Department, or examine African cultural influences in the New World through combined programs with Spanish and Portuguese departments, focusing on the Caribbean or Latin/South America. Alternatively, concentrations can align with existing disciplinary frameworks, such as race/minority/ethnic studies in collaboration with Sociology.
