Ph.D. application deadline: January 10, 2014. Funding available.* The Department of Childhood Studies at Rutgers University in Camden, New Jersey USA opened its doors in September 2007 as the first Ph.D. granting program in Childhood Studies in North America. In addition to the Ph.D., the multidisciplinary program offers BA and MA degrees. Doctoral students in the program ( http://childhood.camden.rutgers.edu/graduate-program/graduate-students/), come from a variety of backgrounds and bring with them an impressive array of educational and life experience. The Masters of Art program continues to grow and produce new and innovative leaders in their field. Applications are now being accepted for the Fall 2014 entering doctoral class. *Deadline for applications is* *January 10, 2014*. *Funding is available on a competitive basis for qualified applicants.* Visit the Graduate Admissions website http://gradstudy.rutgers.edu/ for details or contact Dan Cook dtcook@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. MA applications are accepted year-round on a rolling admissions basis. *Childhood Studies Graduates First PhDs in the field in North America* In May 2013, the Department graduated its first Ph.D. students—Marla Wander, Lara Saguisag and Deb Valentine. These “pioneers” of childhood studies http://articles.philly.com/2013-05-04/news/39028642_1_childhood-playgrounds-beliefsrepresent the leading edge of an exciting and dynamic field. Marla’s research investigates the health decision making process among a adolescents, parents and physicians regarding optional vaccination for preventing HPV infections that cause adult cancers. Lara’s dissertation, "Drawing the Lines: Constructing Childhood in Progressive Era Kid Strips, 1896-1911," examines representations of childhood in late nineteenth and early twentieth century comic strips. Deb’s historical study of the playgrounds in late 19th-early 20th century Philadelphia demonstrates that play advocacy had both positive and negative effects for children in particular communities and sheds new light on the importance of women and African Americans play and kindergarten movements. Lara will begin a tenure-track position as Assistant Professor in English at the City University of New York-College of Staten Island in Fall 2013. In Fall 2013, Deb will be teaching in the Teacher Education Department at St. Joseph’s University. Marla intends to work as a consultant about adolescent health.
