web2.hnet.uci.edu/classics/Tricampus

(UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC San Diego) The UC Tri-Campus Grad uate Program in Clas - sics is a joint venture that combines faculty in Classics and related disciplines from the three southernmost UC campuses.

Students accepted into the program may enroll at any of the three campuses, but they normally apply for admission to the Tri-Campus program through UC Irvine, which is the main lo cation for instruction and administration. Ap pli cations to the Tri-Campus program are re viewed by an admissions committee composed of faculty members from all three campuses.

The goal of the program is to provide a graduate education that unites the main currents of mod- ern literary, cultural, and social-scientific theory with the traditional skills and methodologies of classical philology. Candidates for degrees must exhibit facility in Greek and Latin, competence in research, including theoretical approaches to texts and objects, technical mastery of comput- ing for research and teaching, and experience in teaching.

These goals are realized through the four core courses (CLA 200A, CLA 200B, CLA 200C, and CLA 201), seminars (UC Riverside CLA 250/UC Irvine CLASSIC 220) and reading courses (UC Riverside CLA 292/UC Irvine CLASSIC 205).

All students are admitted into the Ph.D. pro- gram. With the exception of those granted advanced standing because they hold the M.A. degree in Classics from another institution, entering students are concurrently enrolled in the M.A. program.

Students are admitted into the Ph.D. program only. Entering students who do not already hold a master's degree in Classics from another insti- tution will be required to complete M.A. require- ments while pursuing the Ph.D.

The requirements for the M.A. degree in Clas - sics are two years (six quarters) of course work, passage of a special set of examinations, and completion of a master’s paper. The normal course load is three 200-level courses each quarter. Minimum course requirements are four quarters of CLA 200A, CLA 200B, CLA 200C, and CLA 201; four quarters of UC River side CLA 292/UC Irvine CLASSIC 205; and four quarters of UC River side CLA 250/UC Irvine CLASSIC 220. (UC Riv er side CLA 290/ UC Irvine CLASSIC 280 may be substituted for these courses at the discretion of the faculty.) Re quires a reading knowledge of either Ger - manic Studies, French, Italian, or equivalent language, demonstrated by examination or other means. Normative Time to Degree Two years

The requirements for the Ph.D. degree in Clas - sics are three years (nine quarters) of course work. Minimum course requirements are four quarters of CLA 200A, CLA 200B, CLA 200C, and CLA 201; five quarters of UC River side CLA 292/UC Irvine CLASSIC 205; and six quar- ters of UC Riverside CLA 250/UC Irvine CLAS - SIC 220 or an equivalent course. (UC River side CLA 290/UC Irvine CLASSIC 280 may be sub- stituted for these courses at the discretion of the Program faculty.) Students are encouraged to take courses and seminars in relevant areas outside the program at any of the three campuses.

Students must demonstrate reading proficiency in a second modern language by the end of the third year. By the end of the third year and during the fourth year of study, students must have read extensively in the primary texts and in literary history and theory and in ancient his- tory. To qualify as a candidate and enter the dissertation stage, a student must pass an indi- vidually designed set of qualifying examina- tions, including translation examinations in Greek and Latin, written examinations or lengthy papers in special authors and field, and an oral examination.

The facilities, course offerings, programs, and individual faculty mentorship of all three cam- puses are available to students in the Tri-Cam - pus degree program. The resources of the pro- gram are enhanced through a cooperative teaching arrangement among the Tri-Campus program and the Classics graduate programs of UC Los Angeles and the University of South ern California.

Foreign Language Requirement Stu dents must demonstrate reading proficiency in a second modern language by the end of the third year.

Teaching Requirement Experience in supervised teaching and/or research activity is normally required.
