Greek and Roman Studies

Greek and Roman Studies scholars ask questions such as: Why were Roman baths socially significant? What role did women play in ancient Greek funerals? Why was Caligula assassinated?

Greek and Roman Studies scholars examine the civilizations of the Mediterranean area, the Near East, and Western Europe in ancient and medieval times. During the course of your studies, you'll gain research and analytical capabilities, written communication skills, and experience studying and interpreting textual and material remains that have survived from antiquity.
