Generally, requirements for admission to our PhD program include: an MA or an equivalent degree either in or closely related to Art History or Communication Studies, as well as evidence of accomplishment and previous research experience in the proposed field of study. For additional information on Art History requirements, see above under MA Program/Art History.

Candidates with an MA will be admitted into Phase II of the doctoral program, thereby gaining credit for one year of resident study.

Art History: All candidates for the PhD. program are strongly advised to contact a potential supervisor well in advance of submitting the application in order to gauge their interest and availability to supervise. Applicants who have not vetted their research proposal with a potential supervisor are unlikely to be admitted; however, a positive response from an individual faculty member regarding supervisory interest does not guarantee admission.

Communication Studies: Admission to the Ph.D. program is conditional on a strong fit between a candidate’s research interests and those of our faculty. It is not required that applicants contact potential supervisors, or establish a supervisory committee, prior to application. However, applicants may wish to contact faculty members in order to gauge their interest and availability to supervise, as this can be a factor in admissions decisions. A positive response from an individual faculty member regarding supervisory interest does not guarantee admission.
