University of Kansas MA/PhD

[Kokobobo, Ani]

Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Slavic Languages & Literatures at the University of Kansas invites applications for its MA and PhD Programs.

At the MA level, KU SLL offers a traditional curriculum that provides students with foundational knowledge (major literary periods and genres, structure and function of Slavic languages, disciplinary methodologies, control of writing and research strategies, and appropriate language capacity).  Students may focus on Russian, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian,or Polish language and culture.

At the PhD level, KU SLL encourages students to engage in deep study of their particular intellectual interests in the areas of Russian Literature, Slavic Linguistics, Language Pedagogy, or Culture (interdisciplinary studies, Russian intellectual history, Slavic folklore),under the direction and close mentorship of our faculty.

The KU SLL graduate programs prepare students for a variety of professional  positions.  While most KU SLL PhDs choose to remain in the academic sector, others have gone on to careers in government service, NGOs, other public-sector positions, administration, high-school and community-college teaching, and professional education and research support. Mentorship for professional success, regardless of career path, is a high priority for our graduate faculty.
