Programs in Classics

The Department of Classics offers a number of options for students who want to study the literature, history, languages, and art of the ancient world.

Undergraduates may choose from majors in Classical Languages or Ancient Civilization, and minors in Classical Languages, Latin, Greek, or Ancient Civilization.

A Post-Baccalaureate Certificate is available for students who have a B.A., but do not have enough Latin and/or Greek to continue on in graduate school, seminary, or other programs.

The Department also offers the advanced degrees of M.A.T. in Latin; M.A. in Classics, Greek or Latin; and Ph.D. in Classics.

Please see the menu at right to learn more about these programs.

The quality of our Department is reflected in the honors our students have been awarded, such as the Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award, the Dean's Achievement Award, the Manson Stewart Scholarship from the Classical Association of Midwestern States, the Seashore Dissertation Year Fellowship, and Phi Beta Kappa membership.
