The CYA program offers university-level courses during either semester
(September-December; January-May) or for the duration of the academic
school year. Classes are taught in English and the program is organized
in two curricula: Ancient Greek Civilization and East
Mediterranean Area Studies.
- With its Ancient Greek Civilization curriculum, College Year
in Athens invites students to amplify their knowledge of ancient Greece
and to deepen their understanding of Greece's fundamental contribution
to the development of western civilization.
- The East Mediterranean Area Studies curriculum focuses attention
on S.E. Europe, W. Asia, and the Middle East in the time period between
the founding of Constantinople (330 AD) to the present. It is an area
of unusual importance in geopolitics, where Europe intersects with Asia
and Africa and one whose problems and complexities, rooted in the past,
pique the interest of students of history, politics and international
affairs.
