Area Certificate in Medieval Studies

The Area Certificate in Medieval Studies is designed to allow doctoral students to investigate medieval civilization more extensively than in the Ph.D. minor program.

Course Requirements
Nine courses on the medieval period: four in the student's major department and five in other departments, two of which should be drawn from the group of courses listed below. The selection of courses not in the student's major department should be made in consultation with the director of the institute. Students in departments that do not provide the requisite four medieval courses in their disciplines may design an alternative program in consultation with the director of the institute.

Language Requirements
Students must demonstrate advanced proficiency in one of the following languages: Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, or Persian. Advanced proficiency can be established by taking more than the two advanced courses (e.g., Latin L300 and L400 or L409) or by appropriate advanced exam, or by other means in consultation with the director of the institute. Graduate courses in the medieval period are offered by twelve COAS departments in addition to the Medieval Studies Institute. Students should consult the Schedule of Classes or the Medieval Studies Web site (www.indiana.edu/~medieval/) for a complete list of courses offered in a given semester.

Grades
Courses in which a student receives less than a B (3.0) will not count toward the certificate.

Examination
None.
