The Ph.D. in English at Ashoka University is a fully-funded 5-year programme and aims to admit students who are passionate about literature and the world. As part of the Ph.D. programme, students study diverse modes of analysing texts, enabling them to formulate questions that are both rigorous and adventurous. The programme trains students in pedagogic practice, emphasising at every stage the dialogic nature of all learning and writing. The PhD in English thus aims to produce colleagues who will inject both academic rigour and intellectual adventurousness into both their theory and practice. 

The English Department at Ashoka University has strengths in literary theory, Indian literatures (including Dalit and Sufi literatures), Translation Studies, Renaissance literature (including Shakespeare), Indian Shakespeares, literature of discovery and cultural encounter, Queer Theory, Digital Humanities, literature and science, Postcolonial Literature, Modernism and Postmodernism, Film Studies, and Cultural Studies.

Given the depth and breadth of Ashoka's faculty, and the university's commitment to interdisciplinary scholarship, we also welcome applications that might require supervision across individual departments.

Students thinking of applying to the Ph.D. programme in English at Ashoka are advised to first visit the university website and acquaint themselves with faculty specializations before devising a possible topic of research. The programme will only accept students whose specific research interest makes a clear fit with the scholarship of one or more members of the faculty.

Requirements to Apply

Students with an MA or MPhil in English (with 55% or higher). We will also consider applicants from non-English backgrounds so long as they can demonstrate expertise in the field of English literature.

To apply to the Ph.D. in English, applicants need to complete an online application form and to provide the following: 

Statement of Purpose (700 words)

Research essay on student’s area of interest (3500 words)

Two academic letters of recommendation

Admissions to the Ph.D. programme are based on the online application followed by an interview of select shortlisted candidates.

Ashoka University collaborated with Haryana government to focus on governance

Satyaki Choudhury is a part of the graduating batch of the Undergraduate Programme this year

“My journey at Ashoka University began three years ago when I stepped into this vibrant community with a strong background in sciences. Over the years, I’ve embraced a truly liberal education, expanding my horizons beyond my initial expertise into fields like philosophy, literature, and history.

Reflecting on my time here, one of the most significant lessons I’ve learned is the power of voice. Ashoka’s unique classroom experiences, where students from various cohorts interact, initially posed a challenge in voicing my thoughts among older, more experienced peers. However, this environment taught me the importance of speaking up and engaging in dialogue, a skill that has been crucial both inside and outside the classroom.

Leadership at Ashoka goes beyond traditional roles; it involves understanding and integrating diverse perspectives and needs. My role in organizing and hosting events taught me to move forward collectively, tailoring approaches to ensure effective communication and a harmonious team environment. These experiences were made richer by the accessibility and mentorship of our professors, who were always eager to collaborate with students on various projects, from classroom assignments to late-night discussions over tea.

To all incoming students, my advice is simple: be yourself. Ashoka is a place where everyone eventually finds their niche and passion. Take your time to explore and immerse yourself in the myriad opportunities Ashoka offers, and enjoy every moment of your college life. Embrace the diversity, challenge yourself academically, and make the most of your journey at this remarkable institution.”
