Overview

The Department of Classics at the Royal Holloway University of London is a vibrant and friendly environment in which to work and to meet other researchers.

We run research showcases for our staff and students from all sub-disciplines to share current work in progress at several points in the academic year, which offer an opportunity to speak about current research challenges and achievements.

Features

A series of Postgraduate Training workshops offered through the School of Humanities includes career-oriented sessions, general training on skills and methods, preparing for upgrades and vivas, and advice on publishing in a variety of contexts.

Our postgraduates are also part of the wider University of London research culture, especially through the Institute of Classical Studies in Senate House with its unrivalled library facilities and seminar programme.

Other research facilities in London include The British Library and the Warburg Institute for the study of the Classical Tradition, as well as opportunities for collaboration and exchange of ideas with classicists in the other London University departments at UCL, KCL, and Birkbeck.
