Course Description
Classics (M.Phil.)
The M.Phil. in Classics is designed both for those who are already fully trained in the classical languages and for those who have completed non- language based degrees. The course provides students with an excellent grounding in postgraduate research skills in Classics. It also hones the sort of analytical, written, and verbal communication skills that are highly valued and effective in careers outside the university and education sectors. This course has attracted students from all over the world and many have gone on to do doctoral studies in Trinity and in other universities internationally. Student choose four elective modules (or two if they take beginners’ Greek or Latin), which likewise allow them to build specific skills and to follow their individual interests.Â
