We encourage Classics students in their junior year to take advantage of one of the excellent study abroad programs in Athens or Rome. The direct experience of the places, environment, and material culture of Greek and Roman antiquity profoundly enriches any student's study of the ancient world. Classics students also benefit from studying at Oxford as part of the Williams-Exeter Programme at Oxford, which allows them to work one-on-one with tutors on ancient authors and topics that they have chosen in consultation with the Classics Department.

Other valuable programs than these are also available to Classics students, and any student should feel free to consult with a member of the Classics Department about their many options. The Dean's Study Away website contains important information about applying to study abroad as well as a timetable and a list of all approved study away programs.
