Archaeology BA Honours (V400)

This degree inspires you to explore the human past and the ways in which archaeologists investigate and interpret material remains from past cultures.

You'll enjoy hands-on experience of human history, with many chances to work directly with artefacts and take part in fieldwork:

• minimum of four weeks' excavation fieldwork
• artefact handling at the University-led Great North Museum
• a wide range of field trips in our historically rich region

You can choose to study the periods of history that interest you the most, from prehistory right up to the present day.

In Stage 1 we place a strong emphasis on the archaeology of Britain, from the Stone Age to the recent past.
