Classics allows students to develop skills in analytical thinking and creative problem-solving, as well as oral and written communication competencies\u2014all of which can be transferred and applied to any career. Some possible careers for Classics majors include library studies and museums, education, publishing, editing and advertising, governmental and non-governmental organizations, law, medicine, theater and entertainment. That said, studies demonstrate that Classics majors are sought after by employers in many fields, from jobs in the creative economy to positions in business and industry; likewise, Classics majors are well prepared for graduate studies or professional programs. Classics majors have high admission rates in law and medicine programs, and often choose a career teaching Latin or history\/social studies in high schools.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Classics\" width=\"1400\" height=\"788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2XOZL8rrKjc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Senior Gursahej Singh shares why he loves his Classics major.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"uwm-bg-gray uwm-u-py-80\"><div class=\"uwm-l-container--base uwm-l-container--overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading size-h3\" id=\"student-resources\">Recommended Resources for Undergraduates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-card-grid uwm-l-grid uwm-l-grid--equal-y uwm-l-grid--4\">\n<div class=\"uwm-p-card uwm-u-mb-40 uwm-p-card--img uwm-p-card--color-head\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2022\/09\/Academic-Advising-Card_800x500_323465362.jpg\" alt=\"closeup of hands pointing\" class=\"wp-image-3820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2022\/09\/Academic-Advising-Card_800x500_323465362.jpg 800w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2022\/09\/Academic-Advising-Card_800x500_323465362-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2022\/09\/Academic-Advising-Card_800x500_323465362-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Academic Advising<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\"><div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">Understand who your advisors are and the ways they help you successfully navigate college life.<\/div><a class=\"uwm-p-card--link\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/academics\/classics-ba\/#tab-major-advising\">View Advising<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-card uwm-u-mb-40 uwm-p-card--img uwm-p-card--color-head\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2023\/03\/Internship_Card_800x500_134802859.jpg\" alt=\"notebook with the benefits of internship written on it: practice, exposure, learning, and experience\" class=\"wp-image-5012\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2023\/03\/Internship_Card_800x500_134802859.jpg 800w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2023\/03\/Internship_Card_800x500_134802859-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uwm.edu\/history\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/212\/2023\/03\/Internship_Card_800x500_134802859-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Internships<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\"><div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">Experience matters just as much as a degree.
