About the Program

Graduate programs leading to the MA and PhD degrees are offered in Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian languages and literature, Near Eastern Archaeology, Art History, Cuneiform, Hebrew Bible, Biblical and Judaic Studies, Old Iranian Studies, Egyptology, and Islamic Studies.

The length of time needed to complete an advanced degree in the Department depends on financial considerations, the extent of the student's earlier preparation, and similar factors. Students are urged to complete the M.A. requirements in two years, and students in the Ph.D. program are urged to complete degree requirements in an additional five years. Degree requirements should be completed according to the University's "normative time" standards.

Admissions

Admission to the University

Uniform minimum requirements for admission

The following minimum requirements apply to all programs and will be verified by the Graduate Division:

  1. A bachelor’s degree or recognized equivalent from an accredited institution;
  2. A minimum grade-point average of B or better (3.0);
  3. If the applicant comes from a country or political entity (e.g. Quebec) where English is not the official language, adequate proficiency in English to do graduate work, as evidenced by a TOEFL score of at least 570 on the paper-and-pencil test, 230 on the computer-based test, 90 on the iBT test, or an IELTS Band score of at least 7 (note that individual programs may set higher levels for any of these); and
  4. Enough undergraduate training to do graduate work in the given field.

Applicants who already hold a graduate degree

The Graduate Council views academic degrees as evidence of broad research training, not as vocational training certificates; therefore, applicants who already have academic graduate degrees should be able to take up new subject matter on a serious level without undertaking a graduate program, unless the fields are completely dissimilar.

Programs may consider students for an additional academic master’s or professional master’s degree if the additional degree is in a distinctly different field.

Applicants admitted to a doctoral program that requires a master’s degree to be earned at Berkeley as a prerequisite (even though the applicant already has a master’s degree from another institution in the same or a closely allied field of study) will be permitted to undertake the second master’s degree, despite the overlap in field.

The Graduate Division will admit students for a second doctoral degree only if they meet the following guidelines:

  1. Applicants with doctoral degrees may be admitted for an additional doctoral degree only if that degree program is in a general area of knowledge distinctly different from the field in which they earned their original degree. For example, a physics PhD could be admitted to a doctoral degree program in music or history; however, a student with a doctoral degree in mathematics would not be permitted to add a PhD in statistics.
  2. Applicants who hold the PhD degree may be admitted to a professional doctorate or professional master’s degree program if there is no duplication of training involved.

Applicants may only apply to one single degree program or one concurrent degree program per admission cycle.

Any applicant who was previously registered at Berkeley as a graduate student, no matter how briefly, must apply for readmission, not admission, even if the new application is to a different program.

Required documents for admissions applications

  1. Transcripts:  Upload unofficial transcripts with the application for the departmental initial review. Official transcripts of all college-level work will be required if admitted. Official transcripts must be in sealed envelopes as issued by the school(s) you have attended. Request a current transcript from every post-secondary school that you have attended, including community colleges, summer sessions, and extension programs.
    If you have attended Berkeley, upload unofficial transcript with the application for the departmental initial review. Official transcript with evidence of degree conferral will not be required if admitted.
  2. Letters of recommendation: Applicants can request online letters of recommendation through the online application system. Hard copies of recommendation letters must be sent directly to the program, not the Graduate Division.
  3. Evidence of English language proficiency: All applicants from countries in which the official language is not English are required to submit official evidence of English language proficiency. This requirement applies to applicants from Bangladesh, Burma, Nepal, India, Pakistan, Latin America, the Middle East, the People’s Republic of China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, and most European countries. However, applicants who, at the time of application, have already completed at least one year of full-time academic course work with grades of B or better at a U.S. university may submit an official transcript from the U.S. university to fulfill this requirement. The following courses will not fulfill this requirement: 1) courses in English as a Second Language, 2) courses conducted in a language other than English, 3) courses that will be completed after the application is submitted, and 4) courses of a non-academic nature. If applicants have previously been denied admission to Berkeley on the basis of their English language proficiency, they must submit new test scores that meet the current minimum from one of the standardized tests.

Admission to the Program

The MA Degree

Applicants for the MA program should have fulfilled the equivalent of the Departmental requirements for the BA degree. Minor deficiencies in preparation would need to be repaired in the student's first year of graduate work.

The PhD Degree

Applicants to the PhD program should hold the MA or an equivalent degree. Students completing the MA in this Department need to pass a Permission to Proceed exam after completing the MA requirements.

Foreign Language(s)

All PhD students must have passed reading examinations in two modern European languages before proceeding to the preliminary examinations. The modern language examinations will follow the form prescribed under the MA requirements (see the Master's Degree Requirements tab). Students who have passed through an MA program of this department will already have satisfied the requirement in at least one language. Credit is not given for language examinations taken at other schools.

Preliminary Exams

The Department requires that its doctoral students pass comprehensive written preliminary examinations before proceeding to the comprehensive oral qualifying examination. Students are eligible to take the written examinations after completing all of the requirements for the PhD Students must complete one written comprehensive examination for each subject area specified in the application for admission to be covered during the comprehensive oral qualifying examinations. Three comprehensive written examinations are required, therefore, to cover the student's major subject area and two minor areas. The comprehensive preliminary examinations may be of any written form determined by the examiners, but it is suggested that they should consist of a choice of not more than three from a wide range of essay questions. Students should consult with their committee members well in advance concerning the form, which each examination will take.
For all students in the department, except those in Archaeology/Art History specializations, the comprehensive written preliminary examinations will include examinations in at least two Near Eastern languages.

Fieldwork for students in Egyptian and Near Eastern Archaeology/Art History


Each student specializing in Egyptian or Near Eastern Archaeology/Art His­tory must acquire practical experience in archaeology or museum studies. The student should confer with his or her examination committee on ways of gaining this experience, which may include participation in excavations, study in approved museums, or other activities related to fieldwork and approved by the examination committee.


Prospectus

Before applying to the advancement to candidacy to the PhD, the student must first obtain approval of a dissertation prospectus on an appropriate topic from his/her proposed dissertation committee. The prospectus should include a detailed outline, a short essay-type description of the dissertation, and a bibliography.

QE

The qualifying examination is designed to reveal the breadth and depth of the student's knowledge, as well as his or her sophistication of reasoning. It is therefore not to be concerned narrowly, nor to be concerned solely with a dissertation prospectus. Based on the student's performance, the faculty will determine whether the candidate is ready to enter the research phase of PhD study. Students are eligible to take the comprehensive oral qualifying examination after passing the written preliminary examinations.

Time in Candidacy

Advancement to Candidacy

After the student passes the qualifying examination, the student must apply for advancement to candidacy. Before filing this application, the student must first obtain approval of a dissertation prospectus on an appropriate topic from his/her proposed dissertation committee.

Prospectus

The prospectus should include a detailed outline, a short essay-type description of the dissertation, and a bibliography.

Dissertation

The completed dissertation must be signed by all three members of the dissertation committee. A final examination for the PhD degree may be required by the dissertation committee. It is the student's responsibility to be in touch with all members of the com­mittee and to arrange for each member to have enough time to review each stage of the dissertation.

Dissertation Colloquium for PhD Candidates in Ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern Programs

All PhD students in the Ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern programs are required to give an oral presentation (approximately 45 minutes) on their dissertation. The candidate should consult with his or her dissertation Advisers to determine the scope of the presentation. The colloquium should be scheduled during the advanced stages of the dissertation and must be attended by the candidate’s dissertation inside committee members. It is expected that all graduate students and faculty in ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern studies will attend dissertation colloquia.

Required Professional Development

Teaching

Every year, the Department appoints graduate students as Graduate Student Instructors to teach discussion sections of lecture courses and sections of language courses.
