Major Requirements

Classics majors choose one of four options. Those who wish to concentrate on one or both ancient languages may choose an option in ancient Greek and Latin, ancient Greek, or Latin. The classical humanities option is for those who wish to balance a general study of classical antiquity with study of the ancient languages.

Classical Humanities Option (Classical Humanities 190). A major who pursues the classical humanities option must take 36 credits in the department, of which 18 credits must be in ancient Greek and/or Latin languages. The language courses may be equally divided between Greek and Latin, or they may be entirely in one language and may include courses at the 100 and 200 levels. At least six courses counting toward the major must be at the 300 level or above.

Greek Option (Greek 490). A student majoring in classics with emphasis on Greek must take 35 credits in the department, of which 26 credits must be in the ancient Greek language (including at least six courses at the 300 level or above).

Greek and Latin Option (Greek and Latin 492). A student majoring in classics with emphasis on Greek and Latin must take 35 credits in the department, of which 29 credits must be in the ancient Greek and Latin languages. The credits may be distributed between the two languages, but at least 11 credits must be taken in each language. At least six courses must be at the 300 level.

Latin Option (Latin 580). A student majoring in classics with emphasis on Latin must take 35 credits in the department, of which 26 credits must be in the Latin language (including at least six courses at the 300 level or above).
