Archaeology is the only discipline that studies the human past in its entirety; from the origins of our species to the events of yesterday. Archaeology at Aberdeen has a special northern focus that is unique in the UK. Through lectures, field and laboratory work you will engage with the archaeology of Scotland, Scandinavia, northern Europe, the North Atlantic and northern latitudes of Asia and North America.
Duration: 4 years (48 months) | Study mode: full-time | Intake: September | Location: Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom
In year 1, Archaeology will occupy one quarter of your curriculum, and in year 2 it will occupy one half. Year 1 compulsory courses: Getting Started at the University of Aberdeen, Archaeology in Action and Caves to Kingdoms: an Introduction to Prehistoric Archaeology.
The curriculum is designed to equip graduates with the practical and research skills required to work as professional archaeologists. The broad-based nature of the discipline enables graduates to compete strongly in the market place.
