No other institution currently offers an academically and administratively cohesive program that combines Latino education and other diverse cultural and linguistic issues, as well as international issues, within the interdisciplinary framework of a doctoral program. Graduates will be well-grounded in theoretical, conceptual and research methodology used to study culture, literacy, and language and will be prepared to conduct interdisciplinary research in multiculturalmultilingual contexts.
Available Financial Aid:	A limited number of competitive fellowships and assistantships are available for full-time students who are not working outside the university. The amount and type of support will depend on the university budget, faculty research grants, and the need for teaching and graduate assistants.
