Greek Studies Program

Flamenco Dancer

Welcome to the Greek Studies Program at La Trobe University. The Program is one of the most diverse and dynamic Programs of its kind, as might be expected, given Melbourne's claim to be the largest Greek-speaking polis outside of Greece/Cyprus.


What is Greek?

Greek is an extremely rich language, having been in continuous use for four thousand years.

Teaching

The Program offers units in Greek language, culture and history from antiquity to the present day, at undergraduate, honours and postgraduate levels.

Study overseas in 2009

The Classical Association of Victoria, La Trobe University and the University of Melbourne are each offering a scholarship, in association with the Australian Archaeological Institute at Athens (AAIA), to enable three Honours or Postgraduate students to travel to Greece in 2009 to undertake academic research. Each scholarship is worth $3000.

Career Opportunities

Melbourne's large Greek community provides learners of Greek with a stimulating cultural and social environment in which to observe and practise what they study.
