Overview
The MA in Classics will prepare you intensively for further research in Classics, whilst also providing more generic skills and training useful in any job.
Two core courses provide study methods and research skills training, and there’ll be the opportunity to enhance your language skills from a range of modules in Greek and Latin at every level from beginners to advanced.
You can then choose from a unique range of specialist modules in the literature and culture of the classical world (and its later reception). These are taught in very small groups or one-to-one, so you can tailor a programme to your research interests and agenda.
Your programme will culminate with a large-scale dissertation on a relevant topic of your choice, arranged between you and a dedicated supervisor.
Career opportunities
Our Masters programmes are designed to equip students with a wide range of transferable skills, with an emphasis on the development of both research and practical analytical skills. They equip students for further study at Postgraduate level (MPhil/PhD) and meet the training requirements of the AHRC and NERC. Research students have not only continued their studies at postdoctoral level, but also embarked on specialised long-term careers in lecturing, museum work and the heritage industry. Our degrees are a good investment in your future. Whichever direction you choose after graduation, potential employers (both nationally and internationally) appreciate the breadth of view, analytical skills and intellectual rigour that you gain by studying civilizations and periods so different from our own.
We are currently NOT ACCEPTING applications from NON-EU countries, except Georgia and Serbia.
