About this course
Typically, our students benefit from many hands-on learning experiences, including handling authentic ancient coins, recreating the experience of a Greek symposium using replica vases, and visiting historical sites and museums in the UK. You will have the opportunity to study topics such as Greek democracy, the Roman cultural revolution under Augustus, or how the ancients thought about domestic space, in modules specifically focused on Greco-Roman history, art, archaeology and architecture. You will gain skills in analysis, logic, written and oral communication and research, and you will learn how to work independently, meet deadlines and pay attention to detail.
Graduates from the department have gone on to successful and distinguished careers in a diverse range of fields. These include: Law, Teaching, Academia, Civil Service, Theatre, Banking, Marketing and Communications.

Course programme
How will I be assessed?
You will take four modules each year, the assessment of which is generally equally divided between coursework submitted during the year and exams in the summer (100% exam for language modules). Some modules involve alternative assessment methods including digital storytelling videos, blog posts and presentations. Your second and third years (or second and fourth years for Study in Europe degrees) contribute equally to your final degree classification.
