Course summary

Classical Studies offers you the opportunity to study Ancient Greek and Roman literature, culture, and optionally, languages. Studying this BA degree will allow you to read all kinds of texts in translation from around the ancient Mediterranean, while developing a deep understanding of Greek and Roman culture from the archaic period through to the fall of the Roman Empire and beyond.You will explore the fascinating myths and stories, history and culture, thoughts and beliefs of the Greeks and Romans through the study of texts that may be familiar, such as epics and tragedies, and the less well-known, such as love poems and ancient novels.The programme will include the option of studying ancient Greek and/or Latin, although neither is compulsory if this doesn’t align with your interests or ambitions.In addition to Greek and Roman literature modules, there are also options primarily taught in Ancient History, Egyptology, and Philosophy that are available for you to study. Classical Studies is innovative in its range of assessments, and in its inclusion of teaching-placement and creative project modules. The analytical and interpersonal skills that you will acquire throughout your degree will open up a range of exciting career opportunities in a broad range of professions.
