BA in Classics in Queens United States | Queens College, CUNY

Understanding different cultures and mastering foreign languages are fundamental aspects of a liberal arts education. Beyond language classes, this department provides diverse literature and cultural studies courses taught in both English and other languages. Advanced courses allow proficient students to deepen their appreciation of these cultural traditions, with such course sequences often forming key elements of interdisciplinary focuses, minors, or dual degrees that enhance a student's main area of study. Courses taught in translation introduce students to foundational Western and Asian texts, as well as contemporary cultures from Asia, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean region.
