We have had great success in placing our graduates in college and university positions. Our success stems in part from the recognition that since the majority of teaching positions exist in undergraduate and public university settings, graduate education should seek to prepare excellent teachers with a wide grasp of ancient literature, history, and culture as well as an openness to interdisciplinary approaches in the classroom and research. The balance of intellectual training our graduate curriculum seeks to cultivate enables future teachers to see Ancient Mediterranean Studies as a crucial part of the wider intellectual discourse of the modern world.
