SUMMER GREEK AND LATIN INSTITUTE/SUMMERS-ONLY MA PROGRAM/
LATIN TEACHER SCHOLARSHIPS AND TUITION GRANTS
The Department of Classics at the University of
Georgia offers a program
of graduate work in Latin leading to the Master of Arts degree on a summers-only schedule. Requirements may be
completed in four summers, including, if the student elects, one summer
semester in Rome. The M.Ed., Ed.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Latin/Language
Education are also offered through the College of Education (the Ph.D.
requires at least three consecutive
semesters of resident study). Latin teachers from out of state are awarded tuition waivers reducing fees to the
in-state level. Limited scholarship assistance is available and some
teachers may qualify for American
Classical League, CAMWS, and other scholarship programs.
Each summer's curriculum includes undergraduate as
well as graduate courses in Latin and Classical Culture, Intensive Beginning
Greek (in odd-numbered years),
and Studies Abroad in Rome. The Summer Session runs from mid-June to early August; some courses are offered in
four-week short sessions. The Department houses the office of Literary
Imagination and is adjacent to the University's three-million volume library. The
15-member faculty share in a tradition of cooperation with high school
teachers and programs. All classrooms and most dormitories are
air-conditioned.
