Course summary

Explore how our ancestors engaged with the world, and gain a fascinating insight into what it means to be human. Studying archaeology and anthropology combines aspects of the humanities and the sciences. You'll study global human diversity in time and space, in a truly interdisciplinary way. Along with studying the theoretical background, you'll do fieldwork as part of an active research project in the UK or abroad. Our BA Archaeology and Anthropology degree gives teaches you how human societies came into being, how they have changed over time, and the underlying reasons for human diversity today. This degree integrates the disciplines of archaeology (the study of the human past through its material remains) and anthropology, which is made up of:
social anthropology (exploring how people in different places create meaning and build communities)
anthropological linguistics (the study of humans through the languages they use)
biological anthropology (looking at the physiological and genetic diversity in present and past human and primate societies)
We have a purpose-built archaeology building, equipped with the latest science-based laboratories. On this anthropology and archaeology degree you'll gain hands-on experience with archaeological artefacts and materials, and receive the practical training needed for a career in archaeology or anthropology.
