Programme content

If you want to understand contemporary society, politics and culture, you have to look back to antiquity. Students enrolled on our bachelor’s programme in ‘Ancient History’ unpick the foundations of the modern world by delving into the period between the 2nd millennium BC and the 7th century AD. They deal with the?key events, structures and protagonists?of Greek and Roman history and the entire Mediterranean region.

The introductory modules in ‘History’ and ‘Classics’ will familiarize you with basic facts and provide an initial overview of various working methods. You will then look at concrete examples and gain your first experience in dealing with various ancient sources and ancient historical working methods. You will gradually learn more about different periods of?Greek or Roman history and get a taste for related historical disciplines such as epigraphy (study of inscriptions) and numismatics (study of coins).

In-depth reading of historical sources is also part of the syllabus, especially in the fifth and sixth semesters. Various types of sources such as letters, poems and speeches – but especially historiography – form the basis of ancient historical research. That’s why you will learn to check the authenticity of surviving texts and explore the writer’s motives so that you can ultimately draw conclusions from them. This background knowledge will make it easy for you to get involved in topical research discussions and make an active contribution to research.

Structure

Multi-subject bachelor’s programme

A bachelor’s degree is the first professional qualification that can be obtained at a university. The standard length of the programme is six semesters, and different types of courses are offered for each module (e.g. seminars, lectures or practical classes).

A multi-subject bachelor’s programme consists of a major subject worth 120 ECTS credits (1 ECTS credit = 30 hours for attendance, preparation and follow-up work, private study, assessed coursework and examinations) and a minor subject worth 60 ECTS credits.

If you take ‘Ancient History’ as a minor subject, you will cover a total of six compulsory modules.

How might your degree programme shape up?

The following table shows the possible structure of your degree programme with ‘Ancient History’ as your minor subject:
