Our BA Archaeology and Anthropology course offers an exciting, interdisciplinary perspective on what it means to be human, employing archaeology alongside social, evolutionary, and linguistic anthropology.


An ability to understand the diversity of human culture, behaviour and experience across space and time is critical to tackling the key challenges of our contemporary world. Our course will provide you with the essential skills needed to explore issues of migration, sustainable development, and heritage, alongside key questions of cultural and technological change.


You will receive training in qualitative and quantitative archaeological and anthropological methodologies and gain vital archaeological experience in field and laboratory work. You will also be introduced to a range of descriptive, analytic, interpretative and visual approaches to the investigation of archaeological and anthropological material. This will prepare you to undertake fieldwork in communities locally and further afield, providing you with key transferable skills for future employment. Original research inspires all our teaching, and your degree culminates in you producing a substantial final-year dissertation on a topic of your choice.

Our programme is fully accredited by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CiFA) and University Archaeology UK (UAUK).
