About Classics, BA - at University of Wales Trinity Saint David

Key Features

Reasons to choose this course include:

You will develop your skills in both languages and thus gain direct access to some of the most famous works in world literature. The culmination of the degree is the dissertation, where you are free to pursue a topic of your choice in line with our range of research and publication specialisms.
Throughout your studies, you are taught by experts in the field to make sure that cutting-edge research is included in your programme. Students are also given the opportunity to participate in the wider research community and are always welcome at our research seminar series, which feature speakers from around the world.
Incorporated into our Classics degree are opportunities for study abroad with our partners at Bologna (Italy), Tarragona (Spain) and Hobart and William Smith (USA).
While on Lampeter Campus, the ratio of staff to students is such that students have ready and easy access to all their lecturers. Smaller than average group sizes, particularly for language tuition, means that classes are always friendly and are never intimidating. Staff in the School get to know most, if not all, of their students on a first name basis.
The ratio of staff to students also means that we offer an excellent student support network. Every student in the School has a personal tutor, and the School's dedicated Student Support Liaison Officer is always on hand should extra support be needed.
We also support very active student-led Classics and Ancient Civilisations societies, which have organised movie nights and theatre trips and put on plays themselves.

Modules

Typical modules include:

Latin or ancient Greek at beginners, intermediate and advanced level (as appropriate)
From Gods to CGI: an Introduction to Classical Mythology
Athens vs. Rome: Life and Culture in Classical Antiquity
Reading Antiquity: A Survey of Ancient Literature

Course Tutor(s)
