历史哲学博士-非洲散居史

纽约大学历史系为攻读博士学位提供了可能。在非洲历史学领域，该领域不仅建立在其核心教职员工的优势和兴趣范围上，而且还建立在与相关研究领域的紧密联系上。弗雷德里克·库珀（Frederick Cooper），迈克尔·戈麦斯（Michael Gomez）和理查德·赫尔（Richard Hull）这三位专门研究非洲的教职员工从早期到最近，从东到西再到南，涵盖了非洲。此外，纽约大学系在非洲侨民的历史上拥有一个建立良好且备受推崇的领域，该领域的学生扩大了对非洲大陆及其与世界其他地区的联系的感兴趣的人群。非洲历史学院鼓励
New York University's Department of History includes a Ph.D. field in the study of the African Diaspora. As the African Diaspora is as much a conceptual landscape as a geographic one, the field encourages research agendas that explore connections involving communities of the African-descended that extend beyond geopolitical boundaries, the interrogation of relationships of varying nature and scope with Africa, and/or the examination of a specific site or idea that engages with the African Diaspora as a conceptual framework. Lines of inquiry can extend in any direction, and can focus on the cultural, social, political, scientific, and economic, or on any combination thereof.Study of the African Diaspora at NYU is linked closely to the study of Africa, a separate but related Ph.D course of study. Students in the African Diaspora acquire a familiarity with the dimension of Africa most related to their interests, and their professional development is keenly shaped by the experience. This is by design.While housed in History and fundamentally historical in approach and training, the study of the African Diaspora, to be successful, must necessarily be informed by methods and perspectives derived from disciplines outside of History. Interdisciplinary, a method in its own right, is therefore embraced by the African Diaspora field.<br><br>The Department of History offers master's and doctoral programs in national, comparative, and transnational fields, including the history of Africa, African diaspora, Atlantic world, East Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, South Asia, and United States. There are joint Ph.D. programs in French History, through the Institute of French Studies, in Hebrew and Judaic studies and History, through the Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies, and in History and Middle Eastern studies, with the Department of Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies. Students may choose to emphasize comparative or thematic approaches, either within their areas of specialization or as a second field.
