Graduate ProgramThe Department of History offers both an MA and a Ph.D. in History. We offer the nation's first and most experienced doctoral program in Atlantic History. It provides innovative cross-national training in the history of the Atlantic world from pre-colonial times to the modern era. Both graduate programs require concentration in African, European, Latin American or US history. The graduate student community is vibrant, diverse in origins and rich in intellectual interests. The Graduate Student Society (DOHGSA) offers opportunities for sponsored talks and academic activitites. Unique in terms of financial support, the department offers Teaching Assistantships to doctoral students throughout the 12-month calendar year, giving continuous opportunities to work closely with members of the faculty member and to master best practices in teaching and learning modes. Continuous 12-month support also provides doctoral students with the comparative advantage of making steady progress toward degree completion. Teaching assistantships provide competitive stipends and cover tuition. Click here for a list of currently active graduate students. Graduate students also benefit from linkages with FIU's Latin American and Caribbean Center, Cuban Research Institute, African-New World Studies program, and the Wolfsonian Museum.
