The student must complete course work toward the PhD while maintaining a 3.5 GPA, carry out research on the project under my supervision, and develop a related dissertation project. No teaching duties are required. Further funding opportunities are available beyond the four-year grant, e.g., Departmental Assistant Instructorship, Grad School Dissertation Writing Fellowship, or Graduate Research Assistantship on another sponsored project.
 
Review of applications will begin on January 16th and continue until filled.

The successful applicant will have appropriate speaking and writing skills in English and Spanish as well as a masters degree in geography or closely related humanities or social sciences discipline; want to join a group of creative, productive doctoral students conducting research on topics in the geography of Latin America and the Caribbean; want to complete a PhD in
a top-ranked cultural and historical geography program; and want to pursue a career in academia.
 
LSU offers an attractive campus with impressive library, computing, and other types of support. The Department of Geography and Anthropology is involved in exciting interdisciplinary opportunities such as Atlantic Studies, and I particularly encourage grads who want to develop dissertation projects that engage the intersections of nature, culture, and history.
Baton Rouge is an affordable and vibrant city located an hour north of New Orleans in the heart of a culturally interesting region. The many notable faculty and graduates of the Geography & Anthropology Department have earned it a long-standing reputation for leadership in understanding the cultural and historical geography of Latin American, the Caribbean, and the US.
Please consider joining us in our efforts.
 
E-mail Prof. Andrew Sluyter directly for further information and/or to begin the application process.
 
And please circulate this posting to all potentially interested Listserv communities.
