During normal (before COVID-19) times, the Department of Ancient Studies organizes regular study-travel tours in one or more countries in order to experience the topography, monuments, and artefacts of antiquity firsthand, as well as to better understand the long and rich history of these places from antiquity until today​​​. In 2020, the department had planned trips to Greece and to the Balkan countries on the Adriatic​.   These have been postponed indefinitely. We hope to resume these tours once the situation with the COVID-19 pandemic allows.
