Course summary

Our BA Classical Studies course offers a flexible way to explore the art, culture, history, language and literature of ancient Greek and Roman civilisations that have been so inspirational in the formation of the modern world. You'll be taught by leading experts in Greek and Roman literature, language, culture and history, and can choose from a diverse range of course units with topics including ancient storytelling, tragic drama, love poetry and exile literature. Study with us and you'll also have access to exclusive resources such as the Special Collections of The John Rylands Library (home to papyri, medieval manuscripts and early printed books including very early copies of the Homeric poems) and the Manchester Museum (the University's own on-campus holdings) with its world-class Egyptology collections. In addition, you can broaden your studies with options as diverse as Alexander the Great, the Roman Family, ancient philosophy and Egyptology. We also offer further options in related areas, including Modern History, Religions and Theology and History of Art. You can also study ancient languages, enabling you to explore texts and literature in the original language. Although language study is not required, all students are encouraged to take a language option and, if successful, to continue language study throughout the course and follow a language pathway. Our Flexible Honours initiative may also allow you to study an additional arts, languages or cultures subject in conjunction with Classical Studies.
