Study Ancient Studies in Germany (2026/27)
Ancient Studies in Germany
Ancient Studies is a multidisciplinary field that explores the civilizations of the classical and pre-classical worlds—such as ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome—through the lenses of archaeology, history, linguistics, art history, and anthropology. Students examine ancient literature, mythology, philosophy, religion, political systems, and daily life by engaging with original texts, inscriptions, and artifacts, while developing skills in historical analysis, translation, and archaeological methods. Many programs offer hands-on experiences through excavations, museum work, and cultural heritage projects.

Numerus Clausus (Admission Restriction)
For degree courses with a numerus clausus, part of the study places are allocated according to the grade point average (GPA) of the previous degree. Selection is generally based on how many applicants apply for a place. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is to get onto the course. The German grading system ranges from 1.0 (very good) to 6.0 (unsatisfactory).
