Description
The History and Archaeology BA will give you the chance to combine two disciplines that enhance our understanding of human societies and cultures in the past.
This degree has particular emphasis on the medieval and modern periods, although you will also have the opportunity to study the deep past. You will examine both historical texts and material remains and consider the relationship between the two.
Practical experience is a key part of our degrees. You will have the opportunity to participate in fieldwork to ensure that your skills are continually developed.
In the first two years of this degree you will split your time equally between the study of archaeology and history. In your third year your dissertation can be in either history or archaeology.
This course draws on the expertise and experience of our Centre for Historical Archaeology, the UK’s only research institution dedicated to the archaeological study of the past 500 years.
