I26 • The remaining credits can be taken in AFR or in any department other than Political Science. Of these, no more than 6 credits may be taken at the 400-level and no more than 3 combined credits may come from AFR and POL SC 596 and 599. • Communication and foreign language requirements, which will be determined by the student, the Political Science and African Studies Program advisors in accordance with the existing Political Science language requirements. The choice of electives in African Studies is to be proposed by the student subject to approval by the Political Science and African Studies academic advisors. The suite of selected courses should have an integrated, intellectual thrust that probes a thematic, national or regional issue and that is complementary to the student’s specialty in Political Science. Language Requirement The language requirement for a student in the Dual-Title Doctoral Degree Program will be determined by the student and the Political Science and African Studies Program advisors in accordance with the existing Political Science language requirements. The Political Science Foreign Language/Research Skills Competency requirement, contained in the Political Science Graduate Handbook, indicates that Doctoral students must satisfy one of the following four options to demonstrate proficiency in foreign language and/or research skills: 1) Reading proficiency and translation skills in two foreign languages. Proficiency is certified by the School of Languages and Literatures at Penn State. The School’s website details the procedures that students must follow to obtain certification (see http://sll.la.psu.edu/langprof.htm). 2) Superior command of one foreign language. Superior command is defined as the ability to use the language to conduct field research abroad. This may include the ability to live and work in the relevant foreign country; the ability to converse with librarians, government officials, and other gatekeepers of documents and information; and the ability to conduct interviews with citizens or officials. There is no single test or criterion for demonstrating superior command of a foreign language. Rather, the student must provide to the doctoral committee letters from language instructors, faculty who have conducted fieldwork in the language in question, and similar documents so that its members can determine if the language skill is sufficient given the student’s specialization and subfield. 3) Reading and translation proficiency in one foreign language plus a grade of B or higher in an advanced statistics course (i.e., material beyond that covered in PLSC 503) which has been approved by the student’s doctoral advisor and the Director of Graduate Studies. 4) A statistical methods specialization consisting of three advanced statistics courses (each covering material beyond what is covered in PL SC 503). Students must receive a grade of B or higher in each class. The selection of courses must be approved by the student’s doctoral advisor
and the Director of Graduate Studies. These advanced courses may overlap with the advanced courses used if methodology is chosen as the student’s first or second minor field. I27
