Greek and Roman Studies
The study of the ancient Mediterranean world and the civilizations of Greece and Rome is the foundation of the Western intellectual experience. Latin is the largest contributor to the English language as the source of 90% of English words more than two syllables.
Through the lens of Greek and Roman studies, you’ll view the world in a new way, think more critically, freely discuss your ideas, and write clearly and effectively.
Programs of Study
Students may choose to major or minor in Greek and Roman studies, an interdisciplinary program that includes coursework in art, communication, history, philosophy, and religion. Students with further interest in art, history, and archival research may pair the Greek and Roman major or minor with a certificate in heritage and museum studies.
