文学与文化比较研究（CSLC）是一个令人兴奋且创新的博士课程。该校于2011年由南加州大学多恩西费分校（USC Dornsife College）开设，并于2011-12学年入学。<br> <br>创建CSLC的背后是博士。在我们的领域（比较文学，法语和法语，以及西班牙语和拉丁美洲研究）中的教育除培养专门研究外，还应培养共同点。因此，我们希望设计一个程序，以重新映射这些领域的边界，同时保留其最佳传统，并扩大每个领域可以为学科研究带来的成果。CSLC的发明标志着我们对塑造人文科学博士教育的未来的不懈努力
The majority of students pursue the doctorate in Comparative Studies in Literature and Culture (French and Francophone Studies) in preparation for a career of teaching and research at the college or university level in the field of French and Francophone literature and cultural studies. Students preparing for these careers must obtain a broad knowledge of major French and Francophone literary texts and traditions from the Middle Ages to the present, which is achieved through a combination of course work and exams. They should also develop the intellectual depth that allows them to produce an original dissertation in a timely manner.
