What will you learn?
The first study degree of Classical Archaeology is aimed on acquirement of general knowledge that represents vital presumption for the understanding and further study of the cultural-historical development, socio-economic structures and material culture of the two main civilizations of the Ancient world - Greece and Rome.
Special courses are primarily focused on archaeology, with emphasis on the material culture, architecture and arts of the ancient civilizations.
An integral part of the study is practical experience supporting not only in the field of archaeological prospection and research, but also for subsequent laboratory processing, documentation and scientific evaluation of the results.
Unique is the possibility to carry out archaeological excavations and student practice in areas of direct influence of the ancient civilizations - currently in Crete (sites: Oxa Kalos Lakkos, Priniatikos Pyrgos) or at an extraordinary Roman site near Mušov.
International relations and cooperation are supported not only by participation of students in international research or by scientific activities of the department, but also by regular lectures provided by foreign specialists. Students be recommended to attend some exchange programme. The interdisciplinary overlap of the study is very specific, in addition to specialized classic archaeological courses, students acquire basic knowledge and orientation in archaeological theory, methods and technics, in Latin and Classical Greek languages, Ancient Literature, Ancient History, Realia and Mythology of both civilizations.
