About the Faculty 

 
The Faculty of Arts is one of the largest Faculties with a student population totalling some 800. Nine traditional departments - Arabic and Near Eastern Studies, Classics and Archaeology, English, French, History, Italian, Maltese, Philosophy and Sociology - and thirty-five different areas of study, each administered by a Board of Studies and a Coordinator make up the Faculty of Arts. While striving to maintain the best of its traditions, it continues to experiment in new fields of study and new methods of teaching and assessment. 

The Faculty of Arts offers full-time and part-time courses leading to BA, BA (Hons.), MA (Qualifying), MA, MPhil and PhD. The final examination for the first three courses has recently been restructured so as to take the form of a synoptic examination. As from June 1998, this consisted of four three-hour synoptic examination papers for the BA (two in each principal area of study); four for the BA (Hons.) and two for the MA (Qualifying).
