Alyssaf24 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I will be applying for PhD programs in the fall of 2025. Right now, I am working on researching schools and faculty that I could work with. I’ve noticed some English programs really focus on British/ Medieval etc. which made me look into comp lit, though a lot of comp lit programs you have to take 2+ languages. At the start of the program, I should have a good amount of Turkish under my belt and almost reading proficiency of French, but not all schools have Turkish programs and I don’t want to get a PhD in Near Eastern, I just want to do Turkish as a subtopic in research. I want to research contemporary transnational and ethnic speculative fiction, focusing on its role in decolonization, constructing alternative histories, and restoration of cultural narratives. Right now, UChicago targeted 2026/2027 admissions that I think would work really well, but I’m struggling to find professors in other programs. Any recs on what route to go?
