General description

The study program fosters an interdisciplinary approach to the ancient world of
the Mediterranean in more depth. Those completing the program have consolidated
scholarly know-how in two of the four areas of antiquity – literatures and their
languages, material cultures, historical events and developments, religions and
philosophical traditions. They have learned to handle the relevant tools with
confidence, and at the same time have further built their language portfolio.
They are familiar with the history of ancient and classical studies and the
most important trends in contemporary research. They have experience in leading
discussions and in scholarly argument, and in communicating complex issues. In
general they have consolidated the attitudes they endeavored to develop at
Bachelor’s level (such as intellectual curiosity, intercultural competence,
etc.), preparing them for a variety of careers and professions both inside and
outside the university.
