May 2021
We are happy to share that
the PhD Programme in anthropology at the College of Language and Culture Studies
(CLCS) in partnership with UCLA and the support of the Wenner Gren Foundation
was approved by the Research Degrees Committee of the Royal University of
Bhutan.
The next steps will be validation, which will happen in October-November this
year. We expect the programme to launch in the Fall of 2022, which will
be open to Bhutanese and international applicants (minimum requirement among
other things is an MA in Anthropology or MA in an allied social science
discipline).
We will follow up with
more details. In the meantime, please stay posted and feel free to share the
news on the PhD programme (especially to potential PhD applicants, for whom we
will be setting up an email mailing list for information on the programme) on
the fb and twitter pages of the Network of Bhutan Anthropologists:
