The Ph.D. program in Classics at the University of Southern California’s Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences invites applications for admission to the USC Dornsife PhD program, which offers a 5-year funding package that consists of 3 years of fellowship and 2 years of teaching assistant support (plus additional funding opportunities; most students find fellowship or teaching opportunities for the following years).
We will be holding an info session for interested students on Nov 6 at 10am PST. Prospective students will be able to meet USC classics faculty and students, learn about the department and its activities, find out specifics about the Ph.D. program, the requirements to apply and the application process.
To take part, email Stefano Rebeggiani, rebeggia@usc.edu to receive the link for the Zoom meeting.
USC Classics is part of the Epic Network with Harvard, Toronto, and Scuola Normale Superiore (Pisa). An exchange program with Scuola Normale Superiore allows USC students to spend a year of fully funded fellowship in Pisa.
The Ph.D. program in Classics at USC aims to train students to become scholars, teachers and interpreters of ancient Mediterranean civilizations, the Greek and Latin languages and literatures, and the traditions that have developed from them. To prepare students to work in a variety of intellectual contexts, the department seeks to provide both a traditional, substantive training in classical philology and the intellectual flexibility that will enable them to make the world of the past available to audiences of the present.
