It will help you to consider alternative possibilities to many factors of life that we take for granted in the modern world, and thus encourage you to think about ways you can challenge assumptions about your own world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a Classics major, you&#8217;ll dive deep into the rich traditions of  not only the Greeks and Romans but other Mediterranean cultures through active classrooms that seek to bring the past to life. Whether studying Latin or Greek on Butler\u2019s campus, navigating the twisting streets of Pompeii, or doing hands-on work in the Ancient Mediterranean Cultures and Archaeology Lab, you\u2019ll enrich your mind and imagination, sharpen thinking and communication skills, and hone your ability to respond critically and thoughtfully to the varying challenges of the modern world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a result of one on one advising and unique research opportunities, you will be prepared to pursue any of a number of fields of work. Our alumni hold careers in K-12 education, law, entertainment, museums, ministry, archaeology, and as professional historians. Many science students pursue a Classics degree to complement their learning in the pursuit of bio-medical careers.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"two-column-two-buttons alignfull has-no-block-start-margin has-background has-custom-tertiary-background-color wp-block-butler-two-column-two-buttons\">\n\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"two-column-two-buttons__headline butler-auto-contrast\">\n\t\t\t\t\tTake Your Learning Outside the Classroom.\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"two-column-two-buttons__actions\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-buttons butler-button-group is-vertical wp-block-butler-button-group\">\n\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-text-link-blue-medium butler-auto-contrast\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/history-anthropology-classics\/archaeology-lab\/\">AMCA Lab<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-text-link-blue-medium butler-auto-contrast\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/classics\/watkins-grant\/\">Georgia Watkins Fund<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-text-link-blue-medium butler-auto-contrast\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/history-anthropology-classics\/classics\/eta-sigma-phi\/\">Eta Sigma Phi Society<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section style=\"--butler-gallery-carousel-slide-count:3;--butler-gallery-carousel-autoplay-delay:7000ms\" class=\"butler-gallery-carousel alignfull has-no-block-start-margin wp-block-butler-gallery-carousel\" data-paused=\"false\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-gallery-carousel-shell\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-gallery-carousel-controls\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\tclass=\"butler-toggle butler-toggle-outline butler-auto-contrast\"\n\t\taria-pressed=\"false\"\n\t\taria-label=\"Pause carousel autoplay\"\n\t\tdata-pause-label=\"Pause carousel autoplay\"\n\t\tdata-play-label=\"Play carousel autoplay\"\n\t\t data-auto-contrast-source=\".swiper-slide-active .butler-two-column-full-width-media-background\"\t>\n\t\t<span class=\"butler-toggle-icon butler-toggle-icon-pause\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" role=\"presentation\" focusable=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t<use href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-pause\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-pause\"><\/use>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<span class=\"butler-toggle-icon butler-toggle-icon-play\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" role=\"presentation\" focusable=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t<use href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-play\" xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.butler.edu\/arts-sciences\/wp-content\/plugins\/butler-blocks\/build\/assets\/images\/plyr.svg#plyr-play\"><\/use>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper butler-gallery-carousel-swiper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide wp-block-butler-two-column-full-width-media\" data-slide-label=\"Small class size\">\n\t\t<article class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-slide has-card has-no-block-start-margin no-cutout is-overlay-gradient\">\n\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-slide-media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-overlay\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-background\"\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/cdn.butler.edu\/www\/sites\/12\/2022\/01\/08102453\/goodclassroomphoto-scaled.jpeg\"\n\t\t\t\t\talt=\"students in the classroom looking at notes\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"object-position: 50.00% 50.00%;\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-card\" style=\"--butler-two-column-full-width-media-accent:var(--wp--preset--color--custom-contrast-7);\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-headline\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-headline-text butler-auto-contrast\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBecome part of a community of thinkers\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"butler-two-column-full-width-media-description\">As a student in the Classics Program at Butler you&#8217;ll work closely with a small, but dedicated faculty.
