Classics (BA)

About this programme

Classics is the study of the ancient Greek and Roman worlds from many different angles, including language, literature, history, art, archaeology, philosophy, and science. Coursework in Classics can involve everything from learning to read ancient tragedies in their original languages (and even performing in them yourself) to studying what archaeobotanical evidence can tell us about climate change on the millennial scale. Classics students often complement their coursework with summer experiences like language study in Greece and Rome or archaeological fieldwork around the Mediterranean.
