Doctoral
Ph.D. Program
The Ph.D. Program in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Language, Culture and Society features theoretically rigorous, self-reflective, and contextual work in the broad fields of language, culture, and pedagogy. This work is frequently transdisciplinary in nature and international in scope. Doctoral students work with their advisers to create a program individualized around the students' interests, making use of our connections with programs throughout the College and University. Research and courses span a range of theoretical and methodological approaches and are often guided by commitments to critical inquiry and educationally and socially transformative practices.
Faculty and doctoral students in LCS work in a set of overlapping thematic areas. These areas are:
- Teaching and Curriculum
- Languages and Literacies
- Children's Literature Studies, Children and Youth Culture
- (Dis)abilities
- Culture, Society, and History
