We’re excited to share that our PhD program offerings are evolving! While we won’t be enrolling new candidates for Fall 2026, we’re using this time to enhance the experience and opportunities we offer.
Our next cohort will begin in Fall 2027 with the application opening in Fall 2026. This shift allows us to build an even stronger foundation for future scholars. Thank you for your interest and support. Stay tuned for updates and application details!
