Devised to meet demand for professional training both within the UK and internationally, this challenging and rewarding course offers you the perfect blend of theory and practice. It will give you a thorough knowledge of the history and development of archaeological fieldwork and the current state of the art, acquainting you with the key methods employed in modern fieldwork, analysis and dissemination. You'll learn to think strategically about project design and tactically about project implementation.
Under the supervision of our experienced and well-connected staff and situated within a community of practitioners that is unrivalled in the UK, you'll build a deeper understanding of the values, theories, legislation and ethics which underpin modern fields of practice in archaeology. You will explore how they impact upon our fieldwork methodologies and will be able to supplement this knowledge with a range of practical modules and placement opportunities with professional archaeological organisations, to further develop the skills and knowledge essential for varied archaeological careers.
