Austin Peay launches “Philomathes: A Journal of Undergraduate Research in Classics” scholarly journal. (APSU)<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cUndergraduate research has become a prime component of university study in Classics, but there is a distinct dearth of venues in which to share this research with working scholars,\u201d Dr. Tim Winters, professor of Classics, said \u201cAustin Peay State University hopes to help rectify this situation in some measure.\u201d<\/p>\n

The journal is now accepting submissions from undergraduates across the country, and when those young scholars graduate from other schools, Winters hopes they\u2019ll now look to continue their studies at Austin Peay.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because the University received approval from the state to offer a post-baccalaureate certificate in Classics. Winters said they are currently recruiting students for this new program, and he added that Austin Peay is in the early stages of developing its first master\u2019s degree in this field.<\/p>\n

These new ventures will help bolster the program\u2019s already strong academic reputation. Last spring, six APSU Classics students presented papers at an international conference in Knoxville. It was the third year APSU had multiple students present at the event, and Austin Peay had the highest total of students presenting at the conference.<\/p>\n
