The major in Classics requires only 4 advanced language classes. There is thus more space for advanced courses in translation on the history, literature, art, or philosophy of antiquity. This is designed for students who do want a thorough grounding in the language and life of the ancient world, but have less time for advanced language study - perhaps because they came with little or no prior training in Greek and Latin, or perhaps because they wish to take a double major in Classics and some other field, or for some other reason.

Concentrations in Classics

A language concentration is a good complement to any major, including that in another language (students majoring in one language may concentrate in another). It includes advanced work in one or more foreign languages and a theoretical study of language as a universal human activity.

Types of Classics Concentrations
Classics

Four advanced courses in any combination of Greek and Latin.

Concentration in Greek or Latin

Four advanced courses in Greek, or
Four in Latin, or
Three advanced courses in either language plus one "theoretical" course, e.g. CLA 3330 Historical Linguistics or PHI 4335 Philosophy of Language. In place of the one theoretical course, you may substitute two lower-division courses in the other language, e.g., 1301-1302, or 2311-2312.

For any other substitutions, the permission of the Concentration Director is required.
