Course Description
Classical Studies at Bristol allows you to explore real-world issues like gender, race, and our relationship with the environment, by studying the dynamic cultures of the Ancient Mediterranean.
As Bristol is close to ancient sites like Bath and Caerleon, you will enhance your studies with field trips and we run regular trips to cities rich in ancient heritage, like Rome or Pompeii.
Studying Classical Studies involves developing knowledge about all aspects of a culture, learning to analyse a range of types of evidence, and making effective arguments. These are skills highly prized by employers, so our students go on to succeed in a variety of fields, from teaching to technology, banking to broadcasting.
With our broad range of subjects and types of assessment, you will have the opportunity to explore your creativity, follow your ideas and research independently, and build innovative team projects.
Whether you are completely new to the subject or you have been inspired by previous experience, studying Classical Studies at Bristol will mean you discover new ways of exploring the ancient Mediterranean. You will expand your knowledge of Greco-Roman cultures while enriching your understanding of challenges facing us today.
