Ancient World Cultures Minor

19 credit hours

The interdisciplinary minor in Ancient World Cultures is designed to make the study of such cultures available to students in a programmatic way, but without the requirement of learning Latin and Greek. Students can learn about the history, literature, art, and culture of antiquity. This minor is a good complement in particular to majors in Anthropology, Art History, English, History, Philosophy and Theology, but is available to all students regardless of major.
