What the college says

"To study Latin is to encounter face to face the smartest, funniest, most beautiful minds that have ever lived." R. J. Teller Latin is a highly regarded academic discipline and a good grade in the subject will impress universities and future employers. It enables you to acquire a wide range of valued skills. Latin requires students not only to read difficult texts and think about them critically but also to communicate these thoughts persuasively on paper. These skills are highly valued in a wide range of fields including advertising, marketing and journalism, and the highly trained minds that Classicists possess are also valued in banking, accountancy, law, politics, the civil service, medicine and computer programming. In recent years Classics graduates have become, the Foreign Secretary, the Head of the British Intelligence Service and best-selling authors. The knowledge and skills required have some overlap with English and Modern Foreign Languages and the literature content is likely to be relevant to anyone contemplating a degree in those subjects. History students have also found Latin to be an asset at degree level.
