The Ph.D. Degree in Early Christian Studies (30 credit-hours)
I.Before their admission to the degree, students must have completed an
M.A. at CUA – in either Early Christian Studies, or the Department of
Greek and Latin, or the Department of Semitic and Egyptian Languages and
Literatures – or (subject to the discretion of the Director) an
equivalent M.A. at some other accredited institution.
Students with M.A. degrees from other institutions may apply for the transfer of up to 24 hours of graduate credit – in other words, they will have to take two courses additional to those specified below.
II. Ten graduate courses approved by the Director or his deputy and by the student's advisor.
The ten courses (taken as a whole) must
a)be drawn from at least two Schools or Departments,
b)involve substantial reading of Patristic texts in at least two of the original languages,
c)require (in at least four of the courses) a paper or papers based on research that demands the linguistic ability mentioned in b), and
d)represent at least two of the academic disciplines listed in the preamble to this curriculum.
III.A modern language requirement: demonstrated reading knowledge of German and of either French or Italian. The student must pass an examination administered or approved by the Center, prior to taking the Comprehensive Examination.
IV.A written Comprehensive Examination, including sight translations from both Greek (obligatory) and at least one other ancient language as approved (in each student’s case) by the Director. (This last requirement will be modified in the case of students with M.A. degrees in the relevant ancient languages.) The Examination will be based on
wide reading in a field chosen by the student in collaboration with the expected supervisor of his or her dissertation and with the irector.
