This BA in Classics & the Ancient World will empower you to take the burning questions of today and apply them to some of the most celebrated and debated cultures of ancient Europe, Asia, and North Africa.
You’ll get to explore themes such as people versus elites, minority rights, sexual diversity and gender politics, empire and multiculturalism, ethnicity and race, religious identity and experience, consensus and conflict, art, philosophy, the meaning of justice, and much more.
Thanks to a curriculum built entirely with multidisciplinary optional modules, you’ll be free to follow your own interests as you study Classics within the broader context of the ancient world, whether that’s through literature, philosophy, history, archaeology, global and social issues, politics, art, culture, and beyond.
You don’t have to learn Ancient Greek and Latin during this Classics degree, but an optional accelerated language route is available. If you have previous Ancient Greek and Latin experience, you can also continue to develop this during your studies.
