Classics Short Course in Greece

Greece is the cradle of European civilization and the birthplace of philosophy. Greek universities and colleges have a long history in academics, attracting international students from all over the world. Classes are not typically formal, so you can expect open discussions between students and professors, in line with the classical philosophical debate tradition. EU/EEA students don’t pay any tuition at public universities, while non-EU/EEA citizens pay low fees. In Greece, you’ll also enjoy the well-known local hospitality and the wonderful Mediterranean climate. There are many landmarks and monuments waiting to be explored, including the Acropolis, Delphi, the Parthenon, and many others.

A Classics degree is dedicated to the study of ancient Greece and Rome, including studying Latin and Ancient Greek languages, philosophy, and archaeology. The programme gives you a well-rounded understanding of these two civilisations that transformed the ancient world. Specialisations in Classics include classical languages, philosophy, literature, art and architecture, and archaeology. Throughout the programme, you will gain proficiency in ancient languages, learn to analyse texts and artefacts, explore ancient philosophy, develop archaeological skills, and acquire advanced research abilities so that you can build a career in academia, archaeology, or cultural institutions.
