PhD Programmes in Women's Literature

The field of women's literature is one of the more recent areas of literary studies. It can focus on how gender shapes the work of female authors, many of whom have seen their work marginalized due to various sociopolitical factors.

The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
