Our minors in Classics, Greek and Latin are designed to acquaint the student with aspects of the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome or the Greek and Latin languages by means of 5 courses (15 credit hours). There are three separate concentrations for the classics minor. The minor in Classical Civilization (Track A) focuses on ancient history, literature (in translation or in the original languages), and archaeology. The minor in Greek (Track B) is devoted to the ancient Greek language and its associated literature in the original language, as well as Greek civilization and history.
