Classics: Classical Archaeology
Please refer to the current University Catalog to see the course descriptions and a major description with requirements for classical archaeology concentration in classics.
New students considering a concentration in classical civilization, classical archaeology, or Latin should select a language course (Latin and/or Greek) according to their high school preparation.
New students considering a major in any of the classical concentrations may also select CLAS 101, which is required for all classics majors, CLAS 110, and/or ARTH 114A. The department highly recommends that students interested in pursuing the archaeology concentration in classics take ARTH 114A, as it is a prerequisite for other courses required in the concentration.
Students who have not already completed their Natural Science requirement should consider taking GEOL 111-112A, as it lends itself well to the major and concentration.
If you are entering UMW with transfer credit for introductory level courses in this major, please refer to the major requirements and course prerequisites in the University Catalog (see above) to see what courses you are required to take for the major and what prerequisites you have already met.
Please be sure to remember the General Education and Across-the Curriculum Requirements and how your individual transfer credit affects the remaining courses you must take at UMW for a BA/BS degree.
