Overview

Who is this course for?

Taught at third year undergraduate level (FHEQ Level 6), this course is the next step if you have completed, or are due to complete, the British Archaeology degree at the University of Oxford or other similar courses at second-year undergraduate level (FHEQ Level 5).

How you will study

You will attend weekly classes, which are usually on Thursday evening and two hours long. You will also have tutorials, weekend field visits and either a practical course held over two weekends or approximately one week of practical fieldwork. You are given a programme of reading for the teaching sessions and the written work. Assessment is based on three assignments, a practical logbook and a dissertation.

As well as the time spent in teaching sessions, you will need to spend around 12 hours a week studying in term-time. This might include reading, preparing course work, and visiting museums, libraries and sites. You will be able to use the facilities of the Continuing Education Library for your background reading and research.
