Overview
In the one-year Master’s track, students acquire the knowledge and skills required of a professional classicist. The Classics programme at University of Groningen is known for its integration of classical languages and ancient cultural history.
Students learn how to apply modern scholarly theories to ancient literary and material sources; they also hone their skills in the fields of philology, textual criticism and intertextuality by writing an academic commentary on a classical text.
This master’s track offers flexibility in choosing between a more linguistic or a more cultural-historical approach; it is also possible to study epigraphy at another faculty within the Masterlanguage programme, or to include a work placement in the programme.
