Course content

The MA in Public Archaeology explores innovative ways we can engage the public in archaeological research (and practice) as an audience, as clients, and as co-producers.

It combines the theory and context of the relationship between archaeologists, archaeology, and the public with active research and practical experience.

You will develop a comprehensive understanding of how archaeology can benefit society today and will gain practical experience through a short work placement. The pathway is ideal for anyone seeking to learn more about public archaeology, develop their professional practice, or for those with career aspirations as a 'public' or 'community' archaeologist.
