华盛顿大学中文研究生课程现已进入第五个十年。除了中文硕士和博士学位。在中国和比较文学领域，我们于2010年启动了全系该部门的中国语言文学博士学位课程。经过35年的成功课程，结合了中国文学的高级研究和通过大学比较文学博士学位课程提供的课程，我们现在提供了一个强调汉语深度培训的博士课程选项在另一个东亚文学或另一个学科的中国研究中具有第二领域的文学。
The graduate programs in Chinese at Washington University are now in their fifth decade of growth. In addition to the M.A. in Chinese and the Ph.D. in Chinese and Comparative Literature, in 2010 we initiated the doctoral program in Chinese Language and Literature wholly housed in this Department. After thirty-five years of successful programs combining the advanced study of Chinese literature with courses offered through the University's doctoral program in Comparative Literature, we now offer the option of a doctoral program that emphasizes deep training in Chinese literature with a second field in another East Asian literature or in Chinese studies in another discipline.
