Course Overview

The past has many dimensions and there are many routes to it. They are complementary and both are relevant to our past - together they help to guide us through the maze of evidence available to arrive at an understanding of the past.

Why choose Bangor University for this course?

  • This course emphasizes the 2 complementary sources of evidence, giving you experience in working with both archaeological and historical sources.
  • During the History with Archaeology degree, you will develop skills that will be advantageous in a number of careers. Students from Bangor have gone on to work towards field and museum qualifications and many have professional archaeological careers.
  • The School has an excellent teaching reputation.
  • Our staff specialise in the archaeology of Britain and Ireland, with some European archaeology. We offer modules that include prehistory, Roman, early medieval and medieval archaeology as well as landscape archaeology and heritage.
  • North Wales is exceptionally rich in archaeological monuments of all periods. Field trips, archaeological surveys and excavations take advantage of this.
  • Our local museum enables you to gain experience in handling artifacts - an opportunity not widely offered elsewhere. Students can gain valuable experience through work placements in the local archaeological field unit
