Course content

Uncover your passion for archaeology and discover more about the physical remains of the ancient world with our Antiquity MA: Archaeology pathway.
This is the degree for you if you enjoyed studying the ancient world as an undergraduate and would now like to study its archaeology in greater depth and at a higher level, or if you want to develop and expand your existing expertise in archaeology.
Working with experts currently engaged in excavations from all regions and periods of antiquity, you will receive training in the theory and practice of archaeology and in the application of scientific and environmental methods.
You will also have the opportunity to work with our own collection of Greek and Roman artefacts housed in the Archaeology Museum. The Archaeology pathway provides an excellent foundation for further archaeological research in any period of antiquity such as: Minoan and Mycenaean palace societies, archaic and classical Greece, the Hellenistic age, Republican and Imperial Rome, Late Antiquity or Byzantium
