Summer Study

Improve your Greek and Latin language skills, study ancient Greco-Roman culture, or get down and dirty at an archaeological dig in the Mediterranean. 

These are some of the many opportunities available to Classicists for summer study or research.

Students generally need to apply for funding by January or February, so start planning in the fall term.

  • A group of students stands in front of a crumbling brick wall at an archaeological site, likely in Rome.  They are dressed in casual summer attire.

    Courses

    Attend summer classes that take them out to the great sites of the Greco-Roman world as part of their coursework or improve their Greek and Latin language skills.

  • A group of students listens to a guide at the Temple of Aphaia in Greece.  The ancient temple’s weathered, tan columns stand against a clear blue sky and distant mountains.

    Archaeology

    Get down and dirty in foreign countries digging up ancient artifacts and ruins.

  • A smiling student wearing a wide-brimmed hat and gray shirt kneels at an archaeological site.  She holds a small brush and a jar of liquid, applying it to a large, light-brown stone.  Partial ruins and a building are visible in the background.
