Prerequisites
An
undergraduate major in classics, with a good reading knowledge of
both languages and representative reading in both literatures.
Program
and Examinations for the M.A.
Six
units of graduate work divided equally between Greek and Latin;
sight translation examinations in both Greek and Latin; an M.A.
paper combining material from the two languages; and an oral examination
of one hour on the field of the paper.
Program
and Examinations for the Ph.D.
Twelve
units of graduate work equally divided between Greek and Latin,
which may include two units of supervised work on the dissertation.
Rigorous sight translation examinations in both languages must be
passed before the preliminary examinations, which consist of four
written papers (two to be chosen from fields offered in Greek and
two from those offered in Latin). The dissertation must combine,
to some degree, material from both languages. The final examination
is devoted to the dissertation and the field in which it has been
written.
