Academic Studies

At the Department of Ancient History and Epigraphy in Heidelberg, you can study the history of the Ancient World in its whole breadth. The courses offered here are distinguished by their thematic variety, by a strong focus on foundational capabilities (Epigraphy, Numismatics, Papyrology) and by a large number of methodic approaches to historic questions. With its excellent library, and the proximity to the neighbouring institutes from the Classical Studies, the Department offers the best opportunities for successfully studying Ancient History at the highest level.
