Key Summary

About : The Bachelor of Ancient Mediterranean Studies offers students an opportunity to explore ancient cultures, languages, and histories of the Mediterranean region. It combines various disciplines including history, archaeology, and literature, promoting a broad understanding of ancient societies.

Career Outcomes : Graduates may pursue careers in education, museum curation, archaeology, heritage management, and research. The skills developed can lead to roles in cultural organizations and academic institutions, as well as opportunities in tourism and historical preservation.

Ancient Mediterranean Studies majors read some of the greatest literature ever written and study two cultures that are foundational to so much of our own: Latin and Greek. Since Latin and Greek provide the bases for about 80% of English, learning to read these ancient languages will train you to be an articulate communicator and a critical thinker. Because Ancient Mediterranean Studies is an interdisciplinary field, your classes will cover many subjects, and you'll find career opportunities in education, the arts, government, law, communications, the nonprofit sector, and more.
