Note: The programs in this department have been discontinued. New major and minor declarations will not be accepted.

 

The Ancient Mediterranean Studies major will give the student as complete a background as possible in the Greco-Roman cultural spheres of the ancient Mediterranean, with a strong emphasis on their modern contextualization. Ancient Mediterranean Studies majors can acquire the linguistic skills necessary to read original Greek and Latin texts as well as competence in topics that range from ancient history, daily life, and art and archaeology, to religion, sexuality, social issues, identities (including race, gender, and social class), and the modern reception of the ancient world. Interested students may also pursue teacher licensure in Latin. The Ancient Mediterranean Studies major is inherently interdisciplinary, provides excellent general intellectual training, and does not limit the student to any one future career.
