CAREERS FOR CLASSICAL STUDIES MAJORS

Please Take Note: Opportunities for employment in Classical Studies for those with only a bachelor’s degree are extremely limited.

While its focus is the literature and language of Classical Greece and Rome, Classical Studies cover Greco-Roman history and may also include Egypt, Israel, and Mesopotamia, as well as Koine (New Testament) and Byzantine Greek, and Medieval Latin. Classical studies touch on religion, art, philosophy, drama, poetry, science, astronomy, mythology, geography, mathematics, archaeology, politics, law, and gender studies. Almost everything we know has an antecedent or counterpart in the Classics. That in itself is an excellent reason for study.
