Peplos Scene from the Parthenon Frieze"Most classics majors have no desire to become a "professional classicist" and wish to enter the work force or to enter a professional school immediately upon graduation. If this is your choice, you should know that the classics has been seen, and continues to be seen, as one of the strongest liberal arts degrees a student can earn. 未来 employers view classics majors as students who have been trained to read original and difficult texts as well as to think about them critically, and who are able to communicate these thoughts persuasively in speech and on paper .... 记住, 你的B.A. in the classics can lead you to a wide variety of final destinations.”(来自 Careers for Classicists in Today's World).

After graduation, some of our students have earned graduate degrees and teach in high schools, colleges, and universities. Others have pursued careers as writers, journalists, financial analysts, screenwriters, entrepreneurs, librarians, programmers, researchers, scientists, and corporate vice-presidents, just to name a few fields. 如果你能用 language deftly, evaluate evidence that is inadequate and overwhelming, conquer formidable intellectual hurdles, see things in new ways, and communicate your fresh ideas cogently, you are superbly prepared to face the challenging job market that awaits. 经典 is one of the best ways for you to develop those skills.
