Classical Studies examines interconnected fields aimed at comprehensively grasping the ancient Greek and Roman civilizations, including their languages (classical Greek and Latin), philosophy, art, archaeology, and myths. This field encompasses foundational European literary works like Homer's Iliad and Odyssey. To provide this holistic perspective, a robust classical studies curriculum covers not just ancient literature and language but also their historical, philosophical, artistic, and archaeological contexts. Graduates emerge as critically thinking, globally aware individuals.
