Classics, BA (Hons)

About Classics, BA (Hons) - at Trinity College Dublin

This is a four-year single honor programme offered by the School of Classics which allows students to combine the study of both Greek and Latin. Students are required to have a qualification in one of the languages but the other may be started ab initio (from beginner level).

Course Content

The main emphasis of the course is on classical literature and thought viewed within its cultural context. To aid in this, alongside study in each language you will also study history, art history and archaeology. This encourages a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach to classical culture.

The Junior Freshman year

In the Junior Freshman (first) year all students follow the same courses in Greek and Roman history and in Greek and Roman art and architecture. The language component of the course will be different for students who have previously studied either Greek or Latin than for students who are beginning the language from scratch.
