Re: FLUXLIST: History? How long for a Ph.D.?

[Jennifer Sheldon]

Dear ArtnAnts,

It helps to know what you are talking about before telling people what you know.

There is no Ph.D. in art history at the University of California at Santa Cruz. If there were, it would probably be comparable to the Ph.D. in history. A UC Santa Cruz Ph.D. in history generally takes six years.

The closest art history program in the UC system is offered at Berkeley. The Ph.D. in art history at Berkeley takes six to seven years, but they point out that students in Asian or Ancient art generally require seven to eight years.

I know many graduates from the University of California, and I�ve never met anyone who graduated with a Ph.D. in two years.

You seem to be confusing the MFA degree with a Ph.D. The MFA is an art studio degree, and many people complete it in two or thee years.

Of course, I could be wrong. Owen Smith has a Ph.D. in art history and Bertrand Clavez is getting one. Perhaps they can tell us if there are any two year Ph.D. programs.
