Degree Programmes
Our degrees are
extremely unusual for including 70 days of funded fieldwork (subsistence
and
travel grants). In the first week of the first year the 4-day Experimental Archaeology
course gives a very early exposure to a wide variety of aspects of
earlier
technologies and archaeological processes. It also provides excellent
opportunities for every new undergraduate student to get to know the
other
people in their year, as well as the officers of the student society
(the SAS). Together
with
the Training Excavation in the summer of the first year our students
develop
the skills and experience needed to get the most out of the rest of
their 70
days of fieldwork, by acquiring an excellent grounding in field
excavation and
recording techniques as well as experiencing life on an archaeological
excavation.
The Institute of Archaeology has
undertaken a review of all its undergraduate core-courses and degree
structure with a view to introducing changes from 2013-14 (subject to approval). View the new degree structures here»
