About the Program
The field of Classics extends through all aspects of Greek and Roman culture from antiquity through the medieval period. The Classics minor at UCCS is an interdisciplinary program focusing on the study of art, culture, history, literature, philosophy, religion, theatre and women's studies, in conjunction with language training in Greek and Latin. The program aims to integrate these into a larger picture of Greco-Roman culture and, from this perspective, to deepen our understanding of our own.
