The Latin major offers comprehensive instruction in Latin from beginner to advanced levels, allowing students to engage directly with classical works like Virgil's Aeneid, Tacitus' Annals, and Apuleius' Golden Ass. Latin majors complement these primary texts with courses in Ancient Greek and Roman Studies (AGRS), examining diverse facets of Roman civilization while reading numerous ancient works in translation.
Berkeley's Department of Classics has consistently ranked among the globe's premier institutions for Graeco-Roman studies. The department provides outstanding undergraduate and graduate programs focused on ancient Greek and Latin languages and literatures, along with extensive study of Mediterranean civilizations. The Latin undergraduate degree is administered through the College of Letters and Science.
