The programme is implemented as single-subject and dual concentration.

Single-subject programme: students must obtain a total of 180 ECTS credits: 109 (type A/required), 45 (type B/selective), 17 (type C/elective), plus 10 ECTS credits from the common courses at the Faculty of Arts.

Dual concentration programme:

Diploma subject programme: students must obtain a total of 95 ECTS credits: 79 (type A/required), 11 (type B/selective), plus 5 ECTS credits from the common courses at the Faculty of Arts.

Non-diploma subject programme: students must obtain a total of 85 ECTS credits: 69 (type A/required), 11 (type B/selective), plus 10 ECTS credits from the common courses at the Faculty of Arts.

Students of the dual concentration programme focus on either the Romance or Modern Greek module. In the first case (the Latin-Romance branch), students learn a Romance language and Latin; in the second case (the Greek branch), they learn Greek and ancient Greek.

During the course of their studies, students should follow the study catalogue valid for their year of matriculation. The study catalogues for the individual years of matriculation are available at the Faculty of Arts website.

The written part tests the knowledge of the studied language at the B1 level and consists of producing a simple text (letter, reflection) and a reading comprehension test (foreign language text with questions).

The oral part examines the student’s orientation in the following thematic areas based on the type A/required courses: Introduction to Mediterranean Studies, Ancient Literature, Byzantine and Greek Literature, and The Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
