The Classical Tripos is the taught course in classics at the Faculty of Classics, University of Cambridge. It is equivalent to Literae Humaniores at Oxford University. It is traditionally a three-year degree, but for those who have not previously studied Latin and Greek, a four-year course has been introduced. It is not essential to have a Greek A-Level to study for the three-year degree as intensive Greek teaching is available, but most students will have a Latin A-Level.
Classics at Cambridge consists of language (Greek and Latin), classical literature, ancient history, classical art and archaeology, classical philosophy, and linguistics.
