博士 Nyu的表演研究是一项密集，高度竞争的五年计划，旨在训练学生进行高级研究和奖学金。纽约大学表演研究是同类中的第一个（也是极少数）作为表演研究中的独立博士课程，在其戏剧和表演研究博士课程的调查中，被美国国家研究委员会评为第一名。我们的许多毕业生已经在全球领先的研究机构中担任学术职务，出版了屡获殊荣的书籍和文章，并塑造了该领域的未来。
The first of its kind (and still one of a very few) as a stand-alone doctoral program in performance studies, NYU Performance Studies was ranked #1 by the National Research Council in its survey of doctoral programs in theater and performance studies. Many of our graduates have gone on to academic positions in leading research institutions worldwide, publish award-winning books and articles, and shape the future of the field. We accept 4 students per year, all of whom receive intensive and highly individualized mentoring and training, as well as a five-year comprehensive fellowship program that includes full tuition and fee remission, comprehensive health insurance coverage and a stipend. During the first year of entry to the PhD program, students will receive a one-time supplementary fellowship to assist with academic startup (books, computers, or supplies) and housing costs. Further questions regarding the details of the PhD financial packages can be addressed by contacting the Department. The PhD Program in Performance Studies is administered by the Tisch School of the Arts and the degree is conferred by the Graduate School of Arts and Science at NYU.
