Overview

The DPhil in Classical Languages and Literature at the University of Oxford takes the form of the composition of a substantial dissertation, of up to 100,000 words, based on new research on a subject of your choice.

Features

The best dissertations are published, many in the Oxford University Press series of Classical monographs which exists for this purpose.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Doctoral students are required to set the topics of their individual specialisation in a larger understanding of developments in the field across the world.

They are encouraged to pursue a diversity of scholarly interests while working on their doctoral dissertation, so as to start building a larger portfolio of specialities. They may produce articles or review books in areas somewhat different from that of their dissertation, and towards the end of their doctoral work may begin to contemplate a postdoctoral project.

The Classics Faculty assists doctoral students in continuing to develop necessary research skills, and acquiring or improving knowledge of relevant ancient and modern languages. Competence in Latin and/or Greek is an admission requirement.
