M.A. in Greek

The program in Greek enables the student who is well prepared in Greek to concentrate his or her course-work on that language. This program can prepare students for further graduate work and for teaching in the schools. Students hoping to proceed to doctoral level work should also do some course-work in Latin, and students hoping to teach in the schools will have to have earned, in the whole of their college career, enough hours of Latin to satisfy various school or state certification requirements. This program may be taken under the course option or the thesis option. The Department recommends the course option.


Requirements for the course option:

CLA 5936 (proseminar) 1 hour
five courses at the 5000 (or 6000) level in Greek 15 hours
one history course 3 hours
one archaeology course (may be at 4000 level) 3 hours
electives in Classics 11 hours
Translation examination (2 hours)

Requirements for the thesis option:
