Classical Studies Minor


The minor in Classical Studies is an interdisciplinary program that encourages undergraduates in various disciplines to come to an integrated awareness of the ancient cultures of Greece, Rome, the Mediterranean and the classical tradition that underlies much of modern civilization. Courses are offered in six different departments across the School of Arts and Sciences.

For more information, or to declare the minor, contact David Curry, Department of Philosophy, (currydc@potsdam.edu; x2021)

18 semester hours required. 

Many courses satisfy General Education requirements.  No more than two courses may be counted towards any other major or minor program.
