Classics (including preliminary year) BA (Hons)

Course Overview - Classics (including preliminary year) BA (Hons)

Classics at Cambridge isn’t just studied as a period in the past, it also looks at how classical culture, language and philosophy have affected the history of Western civilisation right up to the present day.
