(New Jersey)

The College of Architecture and Design at the New Jersey Institute
of Technology announces a Ph.D. specialization in Urban and
Architectural History. Within the Urban Environment track of the
Urban Systems program, the specialization will accept qualified
students to conduct interdisciplinary work on the built environment,
cities and suburbs, architectural movements, cultural geography,
landscape, and material culture. The strength of the faculty is in
North America, Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa from the
eighteenth century to the present.Topics dealing with other regions
will be considered in transnational contexts. Faculty is drawn
from NJIT's School of Architecture and the NJIT/Rutgers Federated
History Department.

Ph.D. students are funded for four years, contingent on satisfactory
progress and performance. The program offers opportunities to teach
upper and lower level undergraduate courses in urban and
architectural history.
