With the existing curricular resources of the university, it is possible to arrange an undergraduate program that provides sound preparation for graduate study and an eventual career in Greek and Roman archaeology. A student would most profitably fulfill major requirements in one of the three departments contributing to the program, adding courses selected from the other two departments. The following are the three programs recommended for a specialization in classical archaeology. Students may choose to focus on Art History, Classics, or History. An interdisciplinary master of arts (M.A.) degree is available for students interested in advanced study or careers in classical archaeology. Approved Seminars (407) are also recommended.

Students who plan to pursue a career in classical archaeology are reminded that most graduate departments require familiarity with both classical languages and a reading knowledge of French and German.
