The program draws upon the rich resources of various departments, libraries, and museums at Yale. Graduate students who are admitted into the program pursue the Ph.D. degree jointly with one of eight departments: 

Classics, Comparative Literature, English, French, History, History of Art, Italian, Music, or Spanish and Portuguese

Yale University’s doctoral program in Early Modern Studies offers a combined Ph.D. degree with a second department and integrates concentration in that department with interdisciplinary study of the broader range of culture in the early modern period.
