Dear colleagues, Please bring the following to the attention of interested students. Thanks, Peter van Minnen
Each year the Department of Classics at the University of Cincinnati awards several Ph.D. fellowships to qualified students in ancient history, Bronze Age and classical archaeology, and classical philology. All these disciplines are represented among its faculty, which, according to a report released earlier this year, ranks first in scholarly productivity among Classics departments in North America. The resources available to the Department, foremost the Classics Library, support the entire range of ancient world studies. A generous endowment makes it possible to offer students the optimum environment for study and academic and professional development, at home and abroad. The Department will consider applications from qualified students from around the world. The deadline for application is January 15 of each year, and admission decisions will be made soon after. Details about the application procedure can be found on or through the Department's website, http://classics.uc.edu/. Interested students should check out the profiles of the 13 (soon 14) faculty members and the projects they and their students are involved in. The current graduate student body is quite diverse, and students from eight different countries regularly take graduate courses in archaeology, history, and philology or work on their dissertations in Cincinnati or, where appropriate, abroad.
