Description
The Bachelor of Arts in Greek and Latin program is designed to provide thorough and rigorous training in ancient Greek and Latin, as well as the principal languages and literature of the ancient Mediterranean world and beyond. Our majors have opened doors for graduates in various fields: teaching, scholarship (including PhD work in Classics/Ancient Mediterranean Studies, archaeology, etc.), and careers of all sorts. Specializing in one of the two languages (ancient Greek or Latin), students enrolled in this major take at least three semesters in one language of their choice plus at least two semesters of study in the other. The program is rounded out with coursework from subfields such as Mediterranean archaeology, ancient history, and ancient philosophy.
