Classics" is a small label for a discipline that explores all the significant aspects of the ancient Mediterranean world (Egypt, Greece, Rome and more...).

Classics at Adelaide has a long and distinguished history, yet it remains a dynamic and thriving discipline. Staff in the department continue to contribute research to a range of international publications and collaborative projects, yet they also pride themselves on being closely involved in all undergraduate courses. Our teaching and our scholarship are strongly linked, enriching our students' overall experience of the ancient Mediterranean world - consequently, student evaluations of our teaching consistently place us among the top-ranking departments in the University of Adelaide.
