Divi Filius Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 (edited) Anyone know where I can find a list that I can use for further inquiries? I've been googling but I only get individual universities. Edited June 15, 2006 by Divi Filius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viggen Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 well, there is not a list of the best, but i guess they have at least a list (via search use State) that is pretty impressive imo... http://chnm.gmu.edu/resources/departments/ cheers viggen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil61 Posted June 15, 2006 Report Share Posted June 15, 2006 Anyone know where I can find a list that I can use for further inquiries? I've been googling but I only get individual universities. This shows 176 university undergrad classical studies departments in the US: http://www.users.drew.edu/jmuccigr/ug.html I'm sure for the most part most of what are considered 'the best' departments generally line up with general rep of that particular school. You can just use the USNEWs rankings site to get that magazines opinion on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus Pilus Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I was stumbling around the AHA site on a completely different matter and came across this... History PhD programs in the US and Canada This has to be purchased but could be quite valuable. I'm thinking it would come in quite handy to have around here anyway.

Favonius Cornelius Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 University of Chicago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Valerius Scerio Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 U Toronto as well, although Chicago is best known for its ANE dept. and UT is best known for its religious dept. (i.e. classics-related departments, not including the sciences...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Porcius Cato Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 FWIW, when choosing a grad school, you should keep in mind what your specialization will be (e.g., late Roman republic) and who the world experts are in that field. Ultimately, the quality of your grad school mentor is as important (if not more so) than the institution where you intend to do your work. It's entirely possible to go to a great school and burn out because you have no interest in the topics that interest your advisor and/or because your advisor's approach is so hopelessly dated/flawed/boring that you're not marketable in an academic job market.
