Welcome to the Classical Studies Department

We offer language and advanced reading courses in Latin and ancient Greek as well as a range of courses on ancient culture taught entirely in English. For undergraduates, we offer a popular Classics major, minors in Latin and Ancient Greek, and an interdisciplinary minor in Ancient Civilization. The department also supports a small Master of Arts program.听

What is Classical Studies?

Classics is a fundamentally multicultural and interdisciplinary field. At 艾可直播 College, it is the exploration of the ancient Mediterranean world and its complex influence on later times, right up to our own. We're interested in every angle of the human existence, from economics to philosophy, sexuality to architecture. If you're interested in languages, politics, gender studies, literature, religion, science, art, or medicine, Classical Studies might be for you.
