In composing student's individual programs, they may opt for a disciplinary specialization in Classics, Ancient Studies, Archaeology of Ancient Near Eastern Studies. In the core modules, as well as in several elective courses, however, students will be stimulated to broaden their academic horizons by learning to position their discipline within a broader interdisciplinary academic context. students may also choose to give their entire program, including their thesis, an interdisciplinary orientation.
