The BA in Medieval Studies at UVA offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary study of Europe and the Mediterranean world from the 5th to the 15th century. Drawing on history, literature, art history, philosophy, theology, and language, students explore medieval culture through primary texts and visual artifacts. Students can focus on Latin, Old English, or other medieval languages and engage in paleography and manuscript studies. This degree is ideal for those interested in academic research, museum curation, religious studies, or historical fiction writing.
