We bring ancient history to life in a program that would make Indiana Jones jealous.

You’ll learn about every aspect of Greco-Roman antiquity — language, literature, art, architecture, philosophy, politics, science, medicine, myth and religion — in a close-knit department with professors who care about your success. The critical thinking and communication skills you’ll acquire will serve you in a wide variety of in-demand careers in Canada and abroad.

What Lancers Are Saying

Jeffrey Masse - Student
This program taught me to be an independent critical thinker and to articulate myself in speech and writing while always remaining attentive to detail. The faculty worked with me individually to ensure I could succeed beyond my undergraduate degree by providing me with enriching educational experiences both in the classroom and in Greece. The program prepared me to participate effectively in the modern Western world by guiding me through its philosophical, historical, and cultural origins.
