历史哲学博士-东亚历史

纽约大学历史系提供博士学位。在东亚历史学领域，该学科建立在其核心教职员工的优势之上，并与相关部门的教职员工（东亚研究，宗教研究，艺术史，人类学，社会学等）密切相关。聚焦于中国和日本历史的近现代到现代时期（17世纪开始），该领域旨在将东亚定位在一个更大的全球框架内。它旨在鼓励学生广泛地探讨内部产生的历史问题，这些历史问题在相互之间以及在全球贸易，文化和资本主义的广阔世界中的互动中，帮助塑造了各个东亚社会。
New York University's Department of History offers a Ph.D. in East Asian History in a field that builds on the strengths of its core faculty, and in close connection with faculties in related departments (East Asian Studies, Religious Studies, Art History, Anthropology, Sociology, and so on). Focusing on the early-modern to modern period of Chinese and Japanese history (17th century onwards), the field locates East Asia within a larger global framework. We encourage students to engage broadly with historical questions that emerged from within and that have helped shape the various East Asian societies, in their interactions with each other, and in the larger worlds of global diplomacy, culture, and capitalism.<br>Specific course guidelines are flexible and are tailored to the needs and abilities of each student. To qualify as a Ph.D. candidate, students normally take exams in three fields: a major field, a minor field, and a thematic field. The major and minor can be two separate chronologies of the same national history (e.g. Ming/Qing China, modern China), or two national histories (e.g. modern China and modern Japan). The thematic field should be a theoretical area of interest (e.g. gender studies, social theory, theories of nationalism, etc.), this latter field can be created in accordance with student interests and in consultation with the primary faculty advisor. The qualifying exam committee normally consists of three faculty members, two of whom must be from the History Department and one can be from a closely affiliated Department or another University (if necessary). The dissertation committee is normally comprised of five faculty members, two of whom, at most, can be from outside the Department or from another University.
