Departments and Programs
The University of Notre Dame offers post-baccalaureate degrees in four divisions and the Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE). Advanced degrees in law and business are administered separately by the School of Architecture, Law School and Mendoza College of Business, respectively.
Only master’s degrees are offered in ACE; Art, Art History, and Design; Creative Writing; Early Christian Studies; and Romance Languages and Literatures. All other departments and programs offer the Ph.D. degree, and with the exception of Peace Studies and Theology, admit students primarily to their doctoral programs, even though master’s degrees may be earned on the way to the Ph.D.
