M.A (Classics)

Course Overview

This MA program provides you with the professional skills required for the study of Classical Antiquity and the early Middle Ages. Areas of focus follow the research interests of staff and reflect our thematic focus on fusion and transformation between the cultures and languages of Graeco-Roman Antiquity and those of the Early Christian world and the Middle Ages, including Ireland.

Students on the course are closely allied with those on the MA (Medieval Studies) program, leading to a particularly rich academic interaction in the study of language, cultural history and/or archaeology, according to the specialist orientation of the student. Opportunities for future research are fostered through ongoing projects and the University’s interdisciplinary Centre for Antique, Medieval and Pre-Modern Studies (CAMPS).
