The MA (Hons) in Greek is a four-year program offered by the School of Classics. Beginners will start with introductory Greek language and literature courses in their first year, while those with prior experience will take advanced language and literature classes that combine text analysis with translation practice. This degree focuses on advanced Biblical Studies and Greek through research-driven learning, helping students grasp how knowledge evolves and expands. The curriculum fosters independent study with an emphasis on curiosity, precision, and academic discipline. Spanning 48 months, this Master of Arts (Honours) program follows St Andrews' credit-based structure, requiring 480 credits total (typically 120 per year). The initial two years combine core program requirements with elective options (sometimes from other departments), while later years emphasize specialized, research-oriented coursework.
