Overview

The Classical Civilizations major at Agnes Scott College is at the heart of the college’s liberal arts program, educating students in the artes liberales (the “skills that liberate the mind”) and with the tools to implement those skills in a variety of disciplines and careers.

Key Features

The classics curriculum at Agnes Scott is a carefully stepped approach that helps students learn and practice skills essential both for the evaluation of ancient Greece and Rome and their persistent influence on the world around us.

Classics students learn to use a wide range of compelling textual and material remains and a variety of critical methodologies from a range of disciplines—anthropology, art history, history, literary studies, philosophy, political science, and sociology—to examine the cultures of ancient Greece and Rome.

Careers

Classics provides an excellent starting point for students interested in areas such as law, medicine, education, creative writing, history, archaeology, art, philosophy, or linguistics, among many others.

Classics students learn to analyze a wide range of compelling textual and material remains using a variety of approaches-- anthropological, historical, and sociological methods, political theory, literary criticism and art history. Majors and minors also learn Greek and Latin with a rigor that requires close attention to detail, cross-referencing of sources, careful synthesis, and critical analysis of texts and contexts--all skills that serve them well in a wide range of fields.
