The Classics MA is taught by UCL Greek & Latin in collaboration with King's College London and Royal Holloway, University of London.

The programme enables students to study in-depth key aspects of the languages, literatures and cultures of ancient Greece, Rome, the ancient Middle East and their reception. It provides students with the skills of critical and conceptual thinking and equips them with the tools necessary for further research, including training in the use of digital resources online, library catalogues and archives. The programme is suitable for students with either Greek or Latin or ancient Middle Eastern language at advanced - typically BA - level, who wish to develop their knowledge and understanding of the languages and literatures of ancient Greece, Rome and the ancient Middle East, with a view to progress on to further research or as a qualification in its own right.
