Notes about these majors:
- Because GRK/LAT 101 and 102 do not count toward the major, these majors may require 12 credits depending on prior preparation.
- With permission of the Chair, courses in related studies outside the department may be substituted for requirements designated CLAS at a similar level. These include both courses that involve substantial engagement with premodern cultures, such as ART 105, and courses that build skills relevant to the discipline, such as MODL 260E. We encourage our students to explore the course offerings of programs such as AFST, ART, ASIA, HIST, and RELS.
Requirements for the minor in Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies
5 credits as follows:
- Two credits in CLAS courses at any level and/or GRK/LAT courses numbered 103 or above
- Three credits in CLAS/GRK/LAT courses, 200-level or above
Students may combine a Classical Languages major with a Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies minor under the restriction that no more than two courses may count for both.
