Subject: Graduate Programs in Literature, Cultural Studies and Linguistics
at Ohio State University

 

The Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures at The
Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, which offers the M.A. and Ph. D.
degrees with specialization in Slavic Literature and Cultural Studies or
Slavic Linguistics, announces the availability of financial support for
qualified new graduate students in the 2011-2012 academic year.

With a faculty of eleven, including specialists in Slavic literatures, Film,
Women's and Cultural Studies, Slavic and Balkan linguistics, and Second
Language Acquisition, and with five lecturers (in Czech, Georgian,
Hungarian, Polish and Romanian), the Department is one of the largest and
most successful in the field. The more than twenty graduate students come
from all over the country and the world. They work closely with faculty in
the Department and across the University in pursuit of academic excellence.
Opportunities to complete advanced research and present and publish work in
symposia and other fora and to teach a variety of courses in the disciplines
of the Department enhance our Department's graduate student experience.

OSU and our Department offer Graduate Associateships, University
Fellowships, Foreign Language and Area Studies Title VI Fellowships, and
other financial aid.  GA and UF awards are open to students from all
countries. Both incoming and continuing graduate students are eligible for
up to five years of financial support.  Well-prepared Graduate Teaching
Associates regularly teach courses in the Russian and
Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian languages, Russian literature, Russian film, and
Russian culture on the undergraduate level, and occasionally teach other
courses, such as Polish or Czech or Balkan Slavic literature and film for
undergraduates, and the Bulgarian and Ukrainian languages.  All new GTAs
take a two-week training seminar before classes begin and receive further
teacher training and education throughout the school year. 

A Departmental atmosphere of mutual respect and assistance between faculty
and graduate students contributes to the teaching success of our GTAs.  The
mentoring and training our GTAs receive have contributed strongly to an
excellent record of postgraduate placement in academic jobs for our Ph.D.s.

 

The OSU Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Literatures is
part of a major University-wide program in Slavic and East European Studies,
administered by the Slavic and East European Center, which offers an
MA-degree of its own, and which has faculty in many fields, including
Geography, History, History of Art, International Studies, Law, Linguistics,
Music, Political Science, Sociology, Theater, and Yiddish Language and
Literature. The program is supported by a very strong research library, with
over 1,000,000 titles in Slavic and East European Studies, as well as the
world's largest repository of medieval Slavic texts on microfilm. A
considerable library of film and other visual materials is housed in the
Center.   The cost of living in Columbus is moderate, and the city is easily
accessible from almost anywhere in the USA and abroad.

The application deadline for international students who wish to be
considered for University Fellowships is November 30, 2010, and January 15,
2011, for domestic students. For GTA consideration, the deadline is January
15, 2011. Applications for admission received after January 15 may be
considered if spaces are available. Electronic applications are required; go
to www.gradapply.osu.edu.

For additional information on applying, go to www.gradsch.ohio-state.edu/.
Note that international applicants must take and pass the TOEFL exam before
they can be admitted to the Graduate School.  GRE exams are required from
all applicants. The department also requires a sample of academic writing.
