RedViper Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hello! I just saw that WashU has a Ph.D Program in Classics. Is that a new program? Because I always thought that WashU only had a terminal MA program. In any case, has anyone here had any experience with the WashU Classics Department? Or does anyone have any information about the Ph.D program there? I was thinking of applying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ἠφανισμένος Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Yes, WashU's PHD program in Classics is newish, but I don't know anything about it beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pius Aeneas Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 From what I understand the MA program at WUSTL is one of the best, which makes me question the criminally insane judgment behind the decision to start a new PhD program in light of the downright abysmal job market in Classics. kblooms 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tristansmells Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I have an offer from WashU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancrozz Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 From what they told me, the PhD program at WashU was started as a result of the findings in a study conducted by a third party, and the study was enough to convince administration that it was a great idea. They have spent the last several years building up their resources in the library in order to support PhD students. It would be a great choice for anyone who is particularly interested in the Mediterranean economy, since they have an outstanding collection of coins (the Wulfing collection).
