Why Study Classics?

Find heur way here.

Welcome to the Department of Classical Studies!

Welcome to the Department of Classical Studies at UNCG! The languages and cultures of ancient Greece and Rome have been a part of the curriculum here since the university’s founding in 1891, and we are now one of the largest Classics programs in North Carolina. We offer a complete array of undergraduate courses in Greek, Latin, classical civilization, and archaeology, and students can concentrate in any of these areas to earn a degree in Classical Studies. We also offer study abroad opportunities through our UNCG in Rome program and an archaeological field school in Greece.

We invite you to explore this website and our Facebook page to learn more about what our department has to offer. If you would like further information, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I welcome the opportunity to tell you more about our programs.
