Additional information
Degree Overview
This is a professionally-focused degree in archaeology with a strong fieldwork component and a focus on human osteology or the environment.
The degree pathway in the second and final years will comprise a number of compulsory core modules that characterise this combination of archaeology and applied archaeological science. We offer a number of clear pathways, which will provide you with a specialism in, for example, prehistoric archaeology or in cultural resource management.
Study Reasons
This course is accredited by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) and University Archaeology UK (UAUK).
Bradford archaeology graduates are highly sought after by employers. Part of that is down to a national shortage of archaeologists but another part is that Bradford has one of the world’s leading schools and a breadth of experience that spans over 40 years.
