Greek & Roman Civilisation, Latin, Greek BA (Hons) (NFQ Level 8)
Choosing Greek & Roman Civilisation Greek & Roman Civilisation can be taken as part of a BA Joint Honours degree (DN500). It can also be taken on a part time basis (DN501, DN502). No previous knowledge is required, nor will you have to learn the ancient languages. Check out the subjects you can study with Classics by looking at the diagram on page 33. Details of how to apply for these combinations are on page 184.
Choosing Latin and/or Greek Greek and Latin can be studied as separate subjects as part of a BA Joint Honours degree (DN500), and can also be taken on a part time basis (DN501).
Why is this course for me? As so much of European culture looks back to Classical Antiquity, studying Classics will give you insights not just into the ancient past but also into the ideas and texts that shaped the present.
We offer three subjects within the BA degree, which you can take separately or combine: Greek & Roman Civilisation • Latin • Greek
Greek & Roman Civilisation explores the Classical World, through the history, literature, art, archaeology, mythology and philosophy of the Greeks and Romans. You do not need any previous knowledge of the subject, nor will you have to learn the ancient languages.
Latin and Greek allow you to learn a language from scratch or develop your existing knowl- edge. Learn to read works by such authors as Cicero, Homer, Ovid, Plato, Sophocles and Virgil, in their original languages.

Studying Greek & Roman Civilisation and Latin at UCD enabled me to develop my understanding of the Classical world. Because of the modular system, I was able to study several different areas of history, art, archaeology, language and
literature. Te relatively small class sizes meant that I received a lot of individual attention and support from my tutors. Te BA course provided me with a good foundation in a diverse range of subject areas and enabled me to study for a Master’s in Classics at King’s College London.
