Graduate Programs

This is an alphabetical listing of graduate programs in Classics in the United States. The following links take you to the respective sections of this document.

A–D  ◊  F–I  ◊  J–O  ◊  P–T  ◊  U. of A–F  ◊  U. of G–M   ◊  U. of N–W  ◊  U. of V–Y

Each listing generally includes at least three basic links: (1) information on the graduate program in Classics; (2) Classics department web page; and (3) Graduate School web page and/or admissions information.

Most programs that offer the Ph.D. in Classics require that a student specify a concentration such as classical philology, ancient philosophy, ancient history, late antiquity, or archaeology. I have only noted such concentrations when a school offers a separate degree, formal program, or interdisciplinary group in the concentration. Please keep in mind therefore that many programs that are listed below without such a notation nonetheless offer a variety of specializations and tracks.

Many programs offer the M.A. in Greek, Latin, or Classics; often the M.A. in Greek or Latin is a terminal M.A. aimed at those who wish to teach at the secondary school level. While I have not specified these details for each program, I have tried to note when a program includes an M.A.T. (Masters of Arts in Teaching) or post-baccalaureate degree.

A listing of Academic Departments and Programs in Archaeology is available from ArchNet.

Any omissions in this list are either unintentional or are due to the lack of WWW links available for a particular program. If you would like your graduate program in Classics to be listed here, please send mail to kchriste@williams.edu.
