Programme structure
This is the degree for you if you enjoyed studying the ancient world as an undergraduate, and would now like to study European Archaeology in greater depth and at a higher level; or if you want to explore this aspect of antiquity and it wasn’t included in your first degree. It allows you to specialise, but also encourages you to branch out into related disciplines and to consider interdisciplinary approaches.
You will study three core modules:
Creating Europe: Complex Societies 1000 BC – 100 AD
Approaches to Images, Material Culture and Texts

You will also choose three optional modules from across all of the programme’s pathways, offering the opportunity for interdisciplinary study. You will also complete a 15,000-word dissertation on a subject of your choice, with one-to-one expert supervision
