Our diverse faculty work on a wide range of topics and with various theoretical approaches, yet we have particular strengths in the following concentrated areas of study: Classical Rhetoric and Ancient Culture,.Continental Philosophy and Critical Theory, Film and Media Studies, Gender and Sexuality, History and Theory, .Law, .Literary and Cultural Studies, Political and Social Thought, Race and Ethnicity. We are particularly interested in people who want to work critically within (and between) constituted disciplines. | ||
| Please note that the Rhetoric Department admits students for a PhD only. Although an MA degree is awarded after partial completion of the requirements for the PhD, there is no MA program as such with its own curriculum. | ||
