What will I learn?

This degree inspires you to explore the human past and the ways in which archaeologists investigate and interpret material remains from past cultures. You can choose to study the periods of history that interest you the most, from prehistory right up to the present day, in Britain and in the rest of Europe. You'll enjoy hands-on experience of human history, with many chances to work directly with artefacts and take part in fieldwork.
