Academic Programs
Undergraduate Programs
The undergraduate program offers both Major
and Minor in Classical Studies. Please see the Program
Catalog for details.
University Honors Program
The University Honors Program offers lower-division courses taught
by distinguished faculty and introduces undergraduates to the challenges
and rewards of scholarship and research from the beginning of their
undergraduate careers. In the upper division, the program invites
outstanding students to design and produce honors theses and projects
under individual faculty supervision, through the departmental Honors
Program, highly qualified students are invited to conduct a research
thesis of their own initiative and design in collaboration with a
faculty member. Participation in the Honors Program is the capstone
of an excellent education.
Education Abroad Program (EAP)
The Education Abroad Program (EAP) is an excellent opportunity to
lean more about another country and its culture while taking long
programs, a wide range of shorter options are also available. While
on EAP, students are still eligible for financial assistance. Students
are advised to plan study abroad well in advance so as to ensure that
the courses taken fit with their overall program back at UCR. For
further details see the University of California's EAP website and
www.uoeap.ucsb.edu or contact UCR's International
Services Center at 827-4113.
Through the Education Abroad Program, UCR students can add and international
perspective to their education by studying and living in another country
while earning UC credit.
Academic Advising
Students work with a faculty advisor to tailor an individual program
to meet their needs and interests. The knowledgeable Student Affairs
staff of the Department of Comparative Literature and Foreign Languages
also is available to answer students' questions.
