The M.A. in Greek allows students to focus on coursework in Greek literature and culture. It is suited for those who intend to pursue further work in Classics at the Ph.D. level. Students choosing this option are reminded that doctoral level work in Classics requires a strong background in Latin, and students hoping to teach in the secondary schools will need sufficient coursework in Latin to satisfy school or state certification requirements.
