The 2016 Summer Week of the Macquarie Ancient Languages School (MALS) runs 11-15 January 2016.

MALS provides a unique opportunity to explore ancient cultures through the study of their languages in a friendly and stimulating environment. The School, which has a history reaching back to 1981, runs every year in January and July.

MALS began as an intensive Summer School in ancient Greek. It has expanded over the years and now offers courses in a range of ancient languages associated with the teaching and research programs of the Department of Ancient History at Macquarie University, especially Greek, Egyptian, Latin (in winter only), Coptic, Hebrew, Sanskrit, and Akkadian. We also offer additional languages, either on a regular or rotational basis (for example, Aramaic and Phoenician, Old and Middle Irish, Middle Welsh, Old Norse, and in recent times indigenous Australian languages).

Beginners, intermediate, and advanced classes are taught by enthusiastic tutors, some of whom have been sharing their skills and passion for languages at the School for many years.
