[ecrea] Two Pitt PhDs (Literature/Culture & Film Studies/Slavic concentration)

The University of Pittsburgh Slavic Department 
(http://www.slavic.pitt.edu/) invites applications to its graduate 
program, which provides a full range of courses, with particular 
strengths in the study of contemporary Russian culture, Russian/Soviet 
cinema, and Russian literature.  Our program has supported dissertations 
in such diverse areas ascontemporary Russian prose, Soviet postmodern 
culture, Thaw cinema, 1930s-40s Soviet civic poetry, prison culture of 
the Belomor Canal, post-Soviet philosophy, the Soviet /anekdot/, and 
Stagnation-era television serials.  Financial aid (both non-teaching 
fellowships and teaching assistantships) is available to qualified 
applicants. Applications will be accepted until *Monday, 15 
January**2018*and must be submitted electronically at 
https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=up-as. ; For more information,see 
http://slavic.pitt.edu/graduate/requirements.

PhD students help organize the annual Russian Film Symposium 
(http://www.rusfilm.pitt.edu) and edit the refereed journal /Studies in 
Slavic Cultures/ (http://www.pitt.edu/~slavic/sisc/).  Alongside primary 
study towards the degree, students typically are mentored in obtaining 
MA or PhD certificates in one or more of five interdepartmental programs:

.       Cultural Studies (http://pitt.edu/~cultural/)

.       Film Studies (http://www.filmstudies.pitt.edu/)

.       Russian and East European Studies (http://www.ucis.pitt.edu/crees/)

. Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies (http://www.wstudies.pitt.edu/)

. JewishStudies (http://www.jewishstudies.pitt.edu/)

By PhDconferral, students will have teaching experience in culture, 
cinema, language, and literature courses (team-taught and stand-alone 
formats). PhD recipients have received academic job offers or 
post-doctoral fellowshipsin such institutions as Dartmouth, Johns 
Hopkins, Princeton, Stanford Humanities Center, University College 
London, University of Texas Austin, Vanderbilt, and William and 
Mary.  Other PhD recipients have competed successful for senior academic 
administrative positions in International Studies, for work in Russian 
media analysis consulting in the public sector, and for teaching and 
administrative positions in private secondary education.

*Alternative Slavic/Film Studies PhD*. Students with a primary 
interestin Film Studies may apply to Pitt’s *Interdisciplinary Film 
Studies PhD with a concentration in Slavic*, thus working towards a 
single PhD in two disciplines. Application to the Film Studies PhD 
degree may be made in two ways: a.) as part of the /initial application/ 
to the University; or b.) as an application (initially) only to the 
Slavic Department and later (after preparatory coursework) /internally 
for transfer/ to the Film Studies PhD. For information, see
