Due to its incredibly wide array of sites, cities, and universities, Greece has an abundance of options when it comes to choosing which course you’d like to take. Students will often choose to take courses that play to Greece’s strengths, such as philosophy and political science.

What’s the first word that pops into your mind when someone says Greece? For us, it’s history. At Greek universities there are so many history classes that it’s possible for students to really focus in on a period that interests them, and the same goes for study abroad programs in Greece. Classical or Hellenic classes are great options as field trips can be taken to the many ancient ruins that only exist in Greece. If you are interested in history, you should also check out courses in archaeology as well.

As the birthplace of tragedy and comedy, Greece also boasts some of the most interesting theater and drama classes in the world. With excursions to 3rd Century B.C. theaters and access to plays in traditional Greek amphitheaters, it’s tough not to feel the thrill of the stage. Due to its importance in Greek culture, there are quite a few different options for students to choose from, and it’s possible to earn multiple credits in fine arts if you study abroad in Greece.
