Overview

At Classical Civilization from Syracuse University students will develop the ability to read some of the most influential works of western literature in their original languages, and learn about cultures that are radically different from our own, yet at the same time provide the foundation of many modern ideas and institutions.

Key Facts:

While not all Classics students wish to become classical scholars, a major in Classics is among the most impressive degrees to have when applying for a job in other fields.
The work ethic required for success in the languages, the intellectually challenging nature of the grammar and syntax of Greek and Latin, and the interdisciplinary nature of the field are only a few reasons why Classics majors are highly respected and sought-after job candidates.

Learn about cultures that are radically different from your own, yet provide the foundation of many modern ideas and institutions.
Deepen your understanding of civic history, cultural history and modern cultural politics by learning the ways that modern generations adapted and modified classical ideals.
Conduct research with national and international scholars and benefit from the international connections of our world-renowned faculty.
Receive faculty assistance to pursue scholarship and fellowship opportunities like the prestigious Boren and Fulbright awards.
Prepare for law school, medical school or other higher education opportunities.
Learn terms and concepts in various fields that are derived from Greek or Latin, preparing you for employment in law, medicine, government, politics, writing and education.
