This program offers an in-depth exploration of Modern Languages (Italian and Spanish) and Greek at an advanced, research-focused level, enabling students to comprehend how knowledge evolves, progresses, and transforms. It fosters independent learning among all participants, emphasizing curiosity, precision, academic integrity, and intellectual discipline. Spanning 48 months, the curriculum culminates in a Master of Arts (Honours) degree. Like all St Andrews programs, it consists of credit-based modules, requiring students to complete 480 credits—typically 120 per academic year. The initial two years combine mandatory program-specific courses with elective options (sometimes including interdisciplinary Faculty selections). The final years deliver specialized, research-driven instruction through tailored modules. The first two years blend core program requirements with diverse electives (potentially from other Faculties), while subsequent years focus on advanced, program-specific research-oriented studies.
