PhD in Islamic Studies

[Ben1492]

Hi,

I have a question, I have Bachelor of Arabic Language and Literature, Master of Teaching Arabic as a second language and Master in American studies.

I am really interested in pursuing a PhD in Islamic studies, do you think with my undergraduate and graduate studies I have a chance to be accepted into a good program.

 

thanks,

Hi Ben,

That’s not a lot of information to go on, so very hard to answer your question. 

But, I also had a a bachelors in Arabic although my masters is in Islamic Studies. 

Having said that, a strong background in Arabic can’t do anything but help you, as advanced Arabic is often a key ingredient missing from many failed applications in Islamic Studies. 

Good luck!
