Our Department provides MA and PhD programs in History, Classics, and Religious Studies as distinct disciplines, along with an interdisciplinary MA in Ancient Societies and Cultures. Both History and Classics feature multiple program options, each offering diverse geographical, thematic, and methodological specializations. Prospective students should visit the Department's website to explore faculty research specialties.
For Classics, we provide two course-based MA options: Classical Languages (Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies) with potential focus areas in classical literature or ancient history, and Classical Archaeology, which includes fieldwork opportunities. The PhD in Classics is available in both Classical Languages (a comprehensive program providing broad classical training) and Classical Archaeology.
