BA Archaeology and Classical Civilisation

Do you love the classics – the myths and legends – the art and architecture? Complement your passion for Ancient Greek and Roman history with archaeology. You can analyse and interpret material culture using skills from both disciplines.

The course is structured flexibly, allowing you to progress from key skills, theories and methods, to topic specialisation. You could take:

You will also complete 10 days of archaeological fieldwork. This will be through taking part in an approved excavation project, or a related placement, in the UK or overseas.

We work closely with the British Geological Survey and the University Nanoscale and Microscale Research Centre, and offer artefact-handling sessions and educational projects at the on-campus University Museum.

As a joint honours student, you will benefit from skills development and assessment methods from both subjects.
