Overview

Classics and the Ancient World is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Classics is assessed mainly through extended written work rather than examinations. We currently work with 2 universities on this course.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too.

Careers opportunities

These degrees train you to gather evidence and argue from it, which is what the research, policy and analysis market buys. Very little of the work is labelled with the subject's name, so the destinations are broad and the skills need to be named explicitly on an application.

  • Research or data analyst
  • Policy officer
  • Social researcher
  • Programme or project officer
  • Consultant
  • Caseworker or support practitioner

Where they work

After the course

A master's is close to standard for research and policy posts, and some routes, such as social work, require a qualifying degree and registration to practise.
