About Master’s Program,
The Classics and Archaeology department at Queen’s has the honour of being one of the longest-running university departments in the country. Because our graduate program is small, we are able to provide our students with individual attention and support. Our students consistently win both internal and external awards and fellowships. Our faculty members have expertise in Greek and Roman archaeology, history, language and literature, so your research opportunities are vast and varied. You will also have multiple opportunities to get hands-on archaeological experience by taking part in faculty-supervised digs around the Mediterranean world. More information about Graduate Studies in Classics and Archaeology can be found in the School of Graduate Studies Academic Calendar, or by contacting our Graduate Coordinator.

Master’s Funding Coverage,
Ensuring you have sufficient funding while you complete your graduate degree is essential to maintaining wellbeing and remaining focused on your academic progress. Across funding sources, our graduate students receive nearly $28 million in overall funding each year. As a graduate student, it is important that you understand how your funding works and the options available to you. On this page you will find essential information related to how funding works for graduate students at Queen’s. Our Graduate Funding Guide further outlines resources and financial supports for your graduate studies.
The majority of Master’s students in full-time non-professional programs also receive funding support (i.e., in year one for one-year programs, and in years one and two for two-year programs). Given the variations in funding for master’s programs, please consult program specific information and discuss funding with your academic advisor, supervisor, or program coordinator.
Funded students will receive what is called a ‘funding package’, which details their committed funding for each academic year. Typically, students are notified of their funding package in the summer (July/August) preceding their funded academic year (i.e., September-onwards). Funding packages are comprised of funding from a variety of sources.
