Course Overview

The MSc Archaeological Practice is a world-leading archaeology course that equips you with the tools for work in the real world.

The course combines an emphasis on the key practical skills essential for a career within the archaeological profession with a critical study of the advanced theoretical and methodological concepts underpinning the discipline.

We stress the acquisition of vocational skills through practical experience using as our 'laboratory' the rich archaeological resource of Orkney, home to some of the world's most renowned archaeological monuments.

Core modules will introduce you to the principles, philosophy, and theory of cultural heritage management and immerse you in a suite of practical archaeological techniques including excavation; non-intrusive field archaeology; digital means of exploring and recording archaeological materials; environmental archaeology; and post-excavation analysis.

There is flexibility to pursue an interest in period-based modules that reflect the research specialisms of the Archaeology Institute staff, or you may choose to focus entirely on our professional skills modules.
