The Department of Classics and Archaeology studies the worlds of ancient Greece and Rome in ways that allow you to engage with the ancient world first-hand.

Our integrated, multi-disciplinary program combines archaeological practice, ancient history and art, Greek and Latin languages, and literature in translation to better understand the origins of many contemporary traditions and social institutions.

Our classes offer extensive experiential opportunities that range from curating exhibitions at our Cypriote Museum to participating in archaeological excavations. Every year, we offer international courses in the Mediterranean region that explore ancient art and culture directly through archaeological excavations and study tours.
