Welcome
Welcome to the Medieval Studies Program, located at the heart of Georgetown's historic hilltop campus. Our impressive range of course offerings and ready access to faculty make Medieval Studies a rich experience for our community of students. Off-campus, Washington's Library of Congress, The National Gallery of Art, and The Folger Shakespeare Library, offer a wealth of teaching, research, and internship opportunities, while The Walters Art Museum, The Pierpont Morgan Library, The Cloisters, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art are within easy reach. The renowned Medieval Club welcomes all students interested in matters medieval. Its vibrant membership hosts social events throughout the year, culminating in its annual Medieval Day and authentic Medieval Banquet.
