Classics (MA)

The Brock Classics MA program is distinct because of its young, dynamic and engaged faculty. The program emphasizes a holistic approach to the Greek and Roman worlds, encourages the study of languages, literature and history; and assigns prominence to historical context and material culture, especially promoting active archaeological research and travel to the Mediterranean.The Department regularly offers overseas courses at the undergraduate and graduate level, including the archaeological field school and study tours to Greece, Italy, and Turkey. Graduate students who have not previously excavated or participated in a study tour can enroll in these courses, and those that have may qualify for teaching assistant positions for these. In recent years, courses in advanced archaeological research have been offered in Greece and Turkey.
