1.1WelcomeWelcome to the Department of Classics. This Student Handbook gives you information about the Department and its BA programmes. This includes:
You may be studying on a single honours programme (BA Ancient History, BA Classical Studies, BA Classics, BA Greek, BA Latin), a combined degree with a minor component in Philosophy (BA Ancient History with Philosophy, BA Classical Studies with Philosophy, BA Classics with Philosophy), a joint honours programme with History (BA Ancient and Medieval History), Philosophy, English, Drama, French, German or Italian. Whatever your programme of study it is essential that you read this handbook, retain it and refer to it regularly over the year. Not all the information provided here will necessarily apply to you, but it is very important that you make sure that you are aware of the ground rules on which the Classics Department operates. Joint honours programmes are run in conjunction with the other Departments in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and students studying for joint degrees must make themselves aware of the ground rules on which both departments operate. The Student Handbook is one way of providing information. The information in it is updated annually, and aims to provide accurate information about the programme and its rules and procedures. We will always inform you of any changes, most often via the notice boards in the Department and by e-mail. If there are issues on which you have questions which are not addressed here, you will have an opportunity to raise them either at the Departmental briefing for undergraduate students at the beginning of the academic year or at your individual meeting with your Personal Adviser during induction week. You are also at liberty to raise questions at any time with your tutors, Personal Adviser, Academic Co-ordinator or, by appointment, the Head of the Classics Department (contact the Senior Faculty Administrator, either by email: m.scrivner@rhul.ac.uk or tel. 01784 443203). 1.2How to find us: the DepartmentThe Department of Classics is located on the first floor of the International Building (IB). Access during working hours is from the lobby at the top of the outside stairway on the south side of the building opposite the Student Union. Teaching staff and administrative staff offices are located here, including the departmental office shared with the School of Modern Languages, Literature and Culture. The International Building can be found on the College campus map as building 15.1.3Map of the Egham campus
Student parking is limited and a parking permit is required. This can be obtained via Security. You will need proof of insurance and ID before a permit will be issued. An electronic copy of the campus plan can be downloaded at: https://www.royalholloway.ac.uk/aboutus/locationmap/home.aspx. 1.4How to find us: the staffThese lists show the Departmental roles which are most likely to be relevant to your concerns. A full listing of Classics Department academic staff, their administrative roles and contact details is given in section 1.6. Members of academic staff either keep two Consultation Hours per week, which are posted on staff office doors and on the notice board, or run an appointment system using email. For urgent issues which cannot wait for Consultation Hours your Personal Adviser or the Academic Co-ordinator will arrange to see you as soon as possible at a mutually convenient time. Any student may make an appointment to see the Head of the Department of Classics by contacting the Senior Faculty Administrator, Mrs Margaret Scrivner, either in person, by email: m.scrivner@rhul.ac.uk or by telephone 01784 443203.

The Department office is shared with the School of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures and is located on the first floor of the International Building (IB). The Departmental administrative staff will often be your first point of contact. They are available to answer enquiries whenever the office is open. They can take phone messages, and messages can also be left on the answering machine: direct line (01784) 443417. During teaching terms, the Departmental offices are open from Monday to Friday between the hours of 08.30 a.m. and 12.30 pm, and then again between 2.00 p.m. and 4.00 p.m. Please avoid disturbing the administrative staff outside these times. In a genuine emergency anyone in the Department will be happy to help, but otherwise it is important that students respect these rules so that the administrative staff can have time to do their work without interruption.
