Bioarchaeology enables us to paint a more vivid picture of the human past.
BSc Bioarchaeology combines the sciences with an interest in history and ancient populations. York is home to the BioArCh centre, a collaborative research facility formed by the Departments of Archaeology, Biology and Chemistry. The centre is internationally-recognised, with a unique concentration of expertise in human palaeoecology and environmental archaeology.
Undertake isotopic analysis of remains from archaeological sites. Discover where people came from and the distance they travelled in their lifetimes. Understand what past diets were like. Learn to analyse the proteins in object fragments such as Viking-Age hair combs. Find out how they were made and the what they were made of. Examine ancient DNA to better understand our human timeline.
Our department is world-renowned for the advanced study of archaeology. We’re friendly and welcoming, meaning you'll get to know your lecturers, and they'll get to know you. You'll have so many opportunities to get involved. Join the Archaeology Society to working abroad on a research project. We have bespoke facilities on campus.

Careers and Skills
There has never been a better time to study archaeology. With major new infrastructure projects such as HS2 and Crossrail underway, there is a national shortage of archaeologists in the country.
However, studying Archaeology doesn't mean you have to become an archaeologist. Our degrees prepare you for a vast range of careers; the unique combination of humanities and sciences at York means you'll be competent in dealing with data as well as able to produce high-quality essays and reports.
If you're interested in going into the heritage sector, you'll be able to choose modules which provide you with a solid grounding in heritage studies alongside the practical skills needed to kick-start your career. York is a real centre for the heritage industry, and you'll have the opportunity to forge links with museums and heritage organisations through optional volunteering, internships and placements.
