• Classical Studies is the first and oldest area of study, exploring ancient Greek and Roman culture from the second millennium BCE to the fall of the Western Roman Empire.  It is a field which is not limited to a single method or discipline, but instead investigates Greek and Roman culture and its influence up to the present day, in all its richness and diversity, its familiarity and its strangeness. 
  • As it is such a wide ranging interdisciplinary field, Classics can stand alone as a dynamic and challenging major or can complement almost any other major in a liberal arts education. Whether new to or familiar with our Classical Studies Department, please feel free to browse through our website for information on our curriculum, study abroad opportunities, upcoming events, as well as other programs and resources.
