LATIN

The CNELC Department offers many language courses in Latin and Greek, which are open to students from across the university. Familiarity with ancient Greek and/or Latin can be useful for a variety of other degrees and career paths — particularly law and medicine. While we do not offer discrete degrees in these languages, some credits in Latin or Greek are required for the classics major and minor.

A degree in classical languages or studies can lead to a wide variety of successful careers, as famous figures who studied the field such as Anthony Fauci, J.R.R. Tolkien, Chris Martin, Tom Hiddleston, W.E.B. Du Bois and Benjamin Franklin can attest. Our own alumni have contributed to society through impactful careers in education and the arts, technology, international affairs and diplomacy, advocacy and much more.

The Department of Classical and Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations is proud to offer tutoring in all of the languages that we teach. Tutoring is regularly offered during the normal academic year, beginning on the second week of classes and ending on the last week of classes. All language tutoring is on a first-come, first-served basis. It is available only to students who are currently taking a language course within CNELC at GW.
