Bachelor of Arts (Archaeological and Heritage Studies)
The Archaeological and Heritage Studies major combines archaeological, anthropological, historical, and scientific approaches to the study of our past. From the analysis of ancient archaeological artefacts to the management of cultural heritage sites in the 21st century, within this major you will explore the origin of behaviours that capture what it means to be human, and the diversity and achievements of human societies over the past 100,000 years.

Along with a global perspective that spans the evolution of the genus homo to the emergence and collapse of complex urban societies around the world, this major has a strong Australian focus - incorporating archaeological, anthropological, and historical perspectives in the study of Australia’s past.

Key themes studied in this major include archaeological method and theory; Australian Aboriginal archaeology; human evolution; ancient technologies; heritage management; and sustainability, resilience, and collapse in past societies.
