Course Overview

It gives you the practical, analytical, and interpretative skills you need to apply a wide range of specialist approaches, preparing you not only for research in archaeological science but also to pursue career opportunities in all areas of mainstream archaeology.

You will join a group of postgraduate students from across the world and have the opportunity to use a wide range of specialist facilities and collections, whilst being taught by internationally recognised, research-active academic staff.

You can use the course to obtain broad expertise in the field or to specialise in areas such as:

  • Environmental Archaeology, covering environmental change, subsistence, and health through studies of animal bones, plant remains, and biomarkers in human and non-human hard tissue.
  • Landscape Archaeology, focusing on understanding and interpreting landscapes in the past using prospection methods, visualisation, and GIS.
  • Chronology and Biomolecules, specialising in the use of physical, chemical, and biomolecular methods to study and date both human remains and artifacts.
