Cool, I get your point. Since my discipline is Literature, all coverage is often from university.
I am interestering in a Second PhD cause I am not sure to be taken for a Post-Doc position since my PhD is from a foreign university. Is it right or it's just a wrong idea? For this I am asking for your advice, since I don't know US universities, besides three months visiting CUNY during my PhD.
Thanks for your answer!
Thanks TreeofLife. I am not sure to get your point about funding. Would I not be a normal PhD student like others? I know a friend of mine, already graduated in Italy, who had a second PhD at CUNY with all normal coverage: fees, funding etc. Is there in US a special PhD status besides the "normal" one?
Hi everyone,
I am currently a PhD in Comp Lit in Italy, Università di Pisa. I am going to discuss my dissertation very soon and in one year I'll be a postgrad.
My question is: could I apply for a second PhD in US? Are usually US universities interested in taking a student having already a PhD in foreign university? Or maybe I may have more possibilities applying for a postdoc?
Thanks everyone who can help me. And sorry for my english, I'm workin' on it!
