Antiquity and Christian Origins
The Institute for the Study of Antiquity and Christian Origins (ISAC) is a graduate research center of The University of Texas at Austin. It is housed in the Department of Classics, which boasts one of the top ranked graduate programs in Classical languages, Ancient History, and Classical Archaeology in North America. At the same time, because of its focus on the study of religion and of the Bible and its world, ISAC also works in cooperation with the Religious Studies Department of UT Austin. The Institute promotes the development of specialized graduate offerings and degree programs as well as faculty and graduate student research support.
