Notes

1. Students in a Greek and Roman Studies program may choose courses from the following subfields: Ancient History and Society, Ancient Philosophy, Greek and Roman Archaeology and Art History, Greek and Roman Literature in Translation, Greek Language and Literature, Latin Language and Literature.
2. With the approval of the Department of Greek and Roman Studies and the Office of the Dean of the Faculty of Humanities, students who have completed 60 units of work of any Honours program in Classics or Greek and Roman Studies may replace all or part of their Level III work by courses of study at a university or equivalent institution abroad. Consult the Department for further details.
3. Students may receive up to six units of credit for archaeological field work at an approved Greek and Roman site. Consult the Department for further details.
4. Students are encouraged to include at least six units of Greek or Latin in their program. GREEK 1Z03 , 1ZZ3  and LATIN 1Z03 , 1ZZ3 , if not completed in the Level I program, may be taken to fulfill the degree requirements. Students intending to do graduate work in the field of Greek and Roman Studies should note that most universities offering such programs require several years of undergraduate work in both Greek and Latin for admission. These students are strongly encouraged to include Greek and Latin courses as early as possible in their program.
5. Students intending to do graduate work in the field of Greek and Roman Studies may wish to include an independent study course (CLASSICS or GKROMST 4T03 A/B S ) in the final level of their program.
