Bachelor of Arts in Classical Studies - Teacher Certification

Students who major in classical studies are well equipped for a wide variety of career opportunities. Students can pursue graduate studies in classical languages and literature, art history, ancient history, archaeology, and museum studies. Small class sizes, emphasis on critical thinking and expression, and a faculty committed to involvement in undergraduate courses also make this major appealing to students who want excellent preparation for entry to professional schools (e.g., medicine or law). Students who want to be high-school Latin teachers should follow the Teacher Certification specialization. Students who pursue the Florida Teaching minor have the coursework and preparation for professional teacher certification in Florida when they graduate. Alternatively, students can consider a minor in educational studies that would be beneficial if applying to the ProTeach program. Students should consult the College of Education for more information.
