Undergraduate Program

The Department of Classics offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in Classics. Students choose an emphasis in one of three programs of study: Classical Civilization, Greek, or Latin. Each program of study includes courses chosen from the Greek (modern or ancient) or Latin language; art and archaeology; literature, studied in the original language or in translation; and the classical tradition and heritage of the Mediterranean civilizations. Students may also earn Secondary School Latin Teaching Certification, or may choose to pursue a second major in a closely related field, e.g. anthropology, history, philosophy. In addition, a number of courses offered in the Department of Classics may be used toward a major or minor in other undergraduate programs.
