Major in Classics (32 credits)

This major emphasizes the study of languages and literature.

Required Courses:

211 and seven additional upper-division courses in either Greek (for a Greek concentration) or Latin (for a Latin concentration) or a combination of the two (for a classics concentration), 399. Of the seven additional courses, one may be in classical literature or civilization in translation or (with permission of department chair) in a related field.

Suggestions:

Students are strongly urged to take two courses in related fields. Such courses should be chosen to fulfill core curriculum requirements.

Major in Classical Studies (40-56 credits)

This major combines the study of language and literature, history, philosophy, and art for an interdisciplinary approach to classical antiquity. See "Humanities," pages 191-192 for details.
