2. Description of the Programme
The BA (Hons) Classical Studies and Philosophy with Study Abroad programme connects the earliest branch of the humanities with the longest standing of the academic disciplines. A degree in Classics at Exeter enables you to understand an ancient world that has fundamentally impacted the society we live in today, whilst Philosophy sees you question the very essence of what we know.
In Classics, you will focus on Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece, which form the cornerstones of our modern Western civilisation. You will learn to interpret their language, literature, art and culture to unlock new ways of thinking and understand ancient history in context to current issues such as power, sexuality, ethics, migration, identity, magic, food, globalisation and religion. Not only will you emerge as an accomplished researcher, you will have a deep understanding of classical languages and the confidence to analyse, interpret and challenge traditional theories and concepts.
Exeter has one of the largest and most vibrant Classics and Ancient History departments in the country. Here, you join an open, friendly and dynamic community in which to live and study. Our highly-active Classics Society is run by students who organise a lively social and academic programme for you to take advantage of including; plays, balls, debates, film nights, museum visits and opportunities to travel abroad.
In Philosophy you will broaden your studies to explore topics such as existence, knowledge, values, reason and mind. Philosophy, from the Greek philosophia, literally translates as a ‘love of wisdom’ and during your time at Exeter you will engage with and challenge the ideas of some of history’s key thinkers from Aristotle, Plato, Kant, Marx and Descartes to Hume, Russell, Wittengenstein and Putnam. With the support of our enthusiastic staff you will learn to think rigorously, defend your views in a clear and consistent way, understand the why and what-for of different points of view and ultimately develop a sharp, analytical and open mind.
As with all our classically-based degrees, you will graduate with a solid foundation of transferable skills including; communication, persuasion, problem-solving, critical analysis and collaborative working. This will be reinforced by your new-found ability to analyse arguments, criticise texts, debate and write well-argued essays. Recent graduates are now working in areas such as finance, education, law, publishing and journalism with organisations like JP Morgan, the Department of Health, British Armed Forces, Waterstones and Accenture.
This programme is studied over four years. The first two years and the final year are university-based, and the third year is spent at a university abroad on an approved programme of study.
Advice and guidance on your programme can be sought from your personal tutor and programme director. All staff offer regular office hours that you can drop into without a prior appointment for this purpose.
3. Educational Aims of the Programme
The programme will offer you a structured framework of study in which you follow a balanced and complementary range of modules, with sufficient choice to ensure that you are able to follow an individual pathway of learning. The programme further aims to:
- Provide you with a stimulating and supportive environment that is informed by research.
- Offer a coherent and structured framework of study which ensures that within the timespan of the programme you follow a balanced and complementary range of modules, whilst allowing sufficient choice to ensure that you are able to follow individual pathways of learning.
- Promote your understanding of the historical and cultural contexts of Greek and Roman texts and your appreciation of the contribution of individual authors and texts to an understanding of the literary genres of Greek and Roman literature.
- Foster your understanding of Greek and Roman cultures, with a focus on:
- their literature and thought;
- the issues involved in studying other cultures;
- the similarities and differences between ancient cultures and our own.
- Produce graduates who are grounded in the main themes and methods of philosophy through a combination of modules, which develop a reflective understanding of some pervasive and problematic features of the world and of ourselves.
- Provide a range of academic and personal skills which will prepare students from varied educational backgrounds for employment or further study, which will foster mental agility and adaptability, and which will enable you to deploy your knowledge, abilities and skills in their entirety, displaying balance and judgement in a variety of circumstances.
- Offer you the opportunity to develop your skills and capabilities (including linguistic skills, where appropriate) through the pursuit of study in another University in a different geographical and cultural setting.

6. Programme Outcomes Linked to Teaching, Learning and Assessment Methods
Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) On successfully completing this programme you will be able to: | Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) will be... | |
---|---|---|
...accommodated and facilitated by the following learning and teaching activities (in/out of class): | ...and evidenced by the following assessment methods: | |
1. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of a range of major literary works of Greece and Rome, read critically individual works within a specific genre and demonstrate an awareness of the way texts reflect changes in ancient society and perceptions. (3.2 A1) | ILOs 1-4 form the basis of the programme in all levels. However, more sophisticated analysis and understanding is expected in the final stage. These skills are developed in stages 1 and 2 by means of lectures, discussion in seminars, researching and writing essays, gobbet answers and oral presentations. In the final stage these skills are developed in relation to particular topics and periods through specialised modules and through an optional dissertation. These skills are also reinforced in the final stage by placing greater emphasis on seminars; on oral presentations (often summatively assessed); and essay writing (longer essays are expected in the final stage). In explicit terms, ILOs 5-6 are developed through lectures, seminars and essay work on Social Philosophy; 7-8 through similar methods and strategies on Knowledge and Reality; 9-10 through similar methods on Ethics, Philosophy of Mind and Philosophy of Nature, and 11 through practical exercises on Evidence and Argument. However, depending on your chosen portfolio of modules, they will be developed, further in the modules chosen at in the final stage. 13 is developed especially through the optional modules taken in the final stage. | The assessment of ILOs 1-4 is made through a combination of examinations (including essays and gobbet passages for comment); term-time essays and, in many final stage modules, the assessment of oral presentations. The assessment of skills 5-12 is made through a combination of course essays, oral presentations, examinations; also, where appropriate, Research Methods Project or dissertation. |

...accommodated and facilitated by the following learning and teaching activities (in/out of class): | ...and evidenced by the following assessment methods: | |
13. Analyse critically individual texts and combine those analyses to demonstrate understanding of the development of literary genres (Phil. 23.3, 23.4). | ILOs 13-20 are developed throughout the programme by means of lectures, discussion in seminars and study-groups, the preparation and delivery of oral presentations in seminars and the writing of essays. In stages 2 and 3 you are expected to prepare longer and more sophisticated seminar presentations, and, in the final stage, to write longer essays in order further to develop these skills. Also in the final stage seminars are normally 2 hours in length and form the primary teaching and learning medium, with a focus on developing, in the context of particular subjects, the more complex analytical skills listed opposite. ILOs 15-25, are developed throughout the Philosophy side of the degree programme via lectures and seminars, written work and oral work (both oral presentations and class discussion). A more sophisticated use of these skills is developed in the second and final stages; in the final stage, independent use of these skills is developed through the dissertation and final stage optional modules you select. | The assessment of ILOs 13-19 is made through a combination of examinations (including essays and gobbet passages for comment); term-time essays and, in many final stage modules, the assessment of oral presentations. In Philosophy, skills 15-25 are assessed though course essays, assessed oral presentations and examinations in stages 1-2 and through the dissertation in the final stage. |

...accommodated and facilitated by the following learning and teaching activities (in/out of class): | ...and evidenced by the following assessment methods: | |
28. Select, organise and analyse material for written work and oral presentations of different prescribed lengths. (Phil. 23.2) | ILOs Skills 28-29, and 31-32 are developed through the preparation and delivery of oral presentations in most modules at all stages in both sides of the programme, and through the oral discussion of challenging material in all modules in the programme. ILO 32 is further developed in Classical Studies through participation in study groups with other students in most modules in the programme. ILO 33 is also developed through meetings with personal tutors, one-to-one tutorials giving feedback on written work and through discussion in seminars. ILOs 28, 30-31, 34, and 36 developed through written assignments (essays) and examinations in most modules at all levels. ILOs 34-35 form essential parts of the successful completion of the programme but are encouraged especially through preparation for written and oral assignments and seminars. They are also promoted through the student Self-Appraisal system in the mid-semester break. ILO 37 is developed through the dissertation in Classical Studies. ILOs 38-39 are developed in Classical Studies through compulsory ELE assignments in tandem with the Stage 1 reflective learning notebook and in both sides of the programme through the requirement that all written work is word-processed and that the internet is used to access texts and other learning materials. ILOs 40-41 are developed through the language tuition in stages 1 and 2 and in the year abroad. | ILOs Skills 28-29, and 31-32 are assessed through the summative assessment of oral presentations in the final stage (10 or 20%). This assessment may also include a formative peer evaluation element. In philosophy, oral contribution to seminars and presentations are assessed formatively. ILOs 28, 30-31, 34 and 36 are assessed through examinations and written work at all levels and in all modules (also the dissertation but without examination). ILO 37 is assessed by the dissertation in either subject. ILOs 38-39 are assessed through written coursework in all modules. ILOs 40-41 are assessed through the language modules at stages 1 and 2 and in the Study Abroad module. |
