Resources for our current students

Reading Classics at University is a challenging, yet exciting experience. The department is keen to see its students succeed in their studies as well as in their personal lives and careers. We believe it is essential to enable our students to become independent learners, so they can foster their curiosity, pursue their interests from the earliest stages, and develop a life-long passion for learning. The department is also keen to achieve and maintain the highest levels of student satisfaction throughout the degree programme.

In this respect we are delighted to promote our students' initiative of a Classics Society: follow this link for their Facebook page and join their networking and fun activities!

This page comprises the most relevant web resources for the convenience of our Undergraduate students. Please let us know by email if one of the links appears to be broken permanently.
