Introduction:

The Department of Classics is in the College of Humanities.

The cultural environment of Greece and Rome is the subject matter taught in the classics department. Courses are given in the language, literature (in the original and in translation), art and archaeology and in the development and heritage of these civilizations.

The B.A. assumes general knowledge of mathematics; contact the department for basic requirements.  Programs leading to a Bachelor of Arts in Education and a Master of Education with a teaching major in classics are also available. In addition, a number of the department's courses may be used toward a supporting minor in other graduate programs.
