The PhD programme in Literature at the University of Munich (ProLit) offers a systematically structured, research-oriented course of high academic standard. A faculty of specialists from 12 different disciplines provide a framework for study in which literature is approached from a wide variety of theoretical and methodological perspectives. An interdisciplinary approach to literature forms the basis of further enquiries into culture- and media-related issues. Applications are invited from highly-qualified graduate students from Germany and especially from abroad. The criterion for a successful application is a university diploma with an above average G.P.A.: For universities abroad, this diploma should be at least equivalent to the German Magister Artium, Diplom, or Staatsexamen; e.g., the Master of Arts “With Thesis”. The diploma has to be acquired in one of the subjects that are covered by the programme. Applicants should speak German fluently because most courses are held in German. Deadline for applications: December 16, 2011.
