The Cultural Studies PhD Program at George Mason University is now accepting applications for Fall 2023.
The program is the oldest of its kind in the US: a stand-alone, post-MA doctoral program providing interdisciplinary training in the traditions of cultural studies.
Topicality is our watchword.
We offer coursework in gender, sexuality, race, biopolitics, globalization, science and technology, and political economy, as well as mass, visual, textual, and digital culture.

Recent dissertations include research on:
the Radical Faeries; Whole Foods; the business of “mindfulness;” the iconography around President Obama; the birth of the modern organ transplant industry; the current place of literature outside
the academy; excessive policing; greeenwashing, and much more ….
Our student body is diverse and international, and program alumni have had notable success as researchers and instructors.
Courses are scheduled so that all classes run once a week, Monday through Thursday, in the late afternoons and evenings; part-time study
is possible. TAships, RAships, and other forms of financial support are available for qualified applicants. We call special attention to the Graduate Inclusion and Access Scholarship.
