European Master's in Classical Cultures (EMCC)

The emphasis in the European Master's in Classical Cultures is laid on the following disciplines: Ancient History Classical Philology Archaeology The participation of a great number of universities offers a wide range of sub-disciplines in the field of Classical Studies, providing both a high degree of combination options and a European context. This European context forms an important part of the programme, which seeks to define the various facets of a European identity from its classical roots. The diversity of the participating partner universities provides a great opportunity to refine and extend the programme of study through restructured, complex studies and joint activities. Moreover, the diversity of languages, which characterises Graeco-Roman antiquity as much as it does modern Europe, is emphasised. To enhance country-specific knowledge, excursions to or inspections of important European historical sites are to be integrated into the study plan.
