Department of Classical and Religious Studies

Classical and religious studies provides a unique opportunity to explore civilizations in dialogue rather than isolation. We examine the cultures, histories, religions, civilizations, traditions, languages, philosophies, and environments of the ancient Mediterranean, the Middle East, South Asia, and beyond. Whether you are drawn to ancient literature, archaeological fieldwork, ethical traditions, or the study of how communities make meaning, you will find a home here—and develop not only the analytical, interpretive, and communicative skills that open doors across professions, but a deeper understanding of the human experience itself. Learn more about the benefits of Classical and Religious Studies.
