Courses in Premodern Studies

Every semester a wide variety of premodern studies courses are offered across the University. We compile lists of these courses to make it easier for students to navigate opportunities across departments. The lists include courses in the historical humanities and social sciences that address the ancient, medieval, and/or Early Modern periods as well as method and theory courses important for multidisciplinary scholarship.
