PH. D.
The Advanced course is intended for those students who elect
Romance Languages for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. It
embraces three years of graduate work in any two languages of the
group, and is especially adapted to students who have graduated in
Latin and Greek. Study of the comparative grammar, vocabulary, and
literature of these languages is made a special feature of this course.
Most attractive combinations can be made in this department, such as
French-Italian, Spanish-French, Portuguese-Spanish, Provençal-French,
Latin-French, etc. Graduation in Latin is indispensable for the prosecution
of a Ph. D. course in Romance Languages. Instruction will be given
by conference, assigned private work, and stated examination, and a
dissertation evincing original research in some department of grammar,
phonetics, syntax, literature or history, will in every case be
required. Detailed courses for intending students will be arranged by
the Professor on application.
