Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Ancient Studies] From University of Maryland Baltimore County

Ancient Studies professors are passionate about their subjects and love teaching them; they are easy to engage in conversation and make time for their students. Their professional expertise ranges from the Bronze Age to the Byzantine Period and all points in between.

The hallmark of Ancient Studies at UMBC is an unparalleled student experience. The department offers numerous opportunities for students to study and travel abroad, to do internships, and to take part in archaeological fieldwork. Each spring, Ancient Studies professors lead a study tour that enables students to experience firsthand the landscapes, artifacts, monuments, and works of art they have studied in classes. At UMBC, Ancient studies majors have unique prospects for conducting research. Are you curious about ancient music? Have a replica ancient instrument built and learn to play it. Do you love ancient vase painting? Visit European museums and study them privately. Are you interested in the principles of ancient science and technology? Develop a research project in these fields. Whatever vision you have for your education, the Ancient Studies department can help you realize it.
