Course Overview

The BA (Hons) Politics and Archaeology joint degree focuses on the different political structures and ideologies across the world and how they shape our lives, with an exploration of a range of archaeological skills such as fieldwork, surveying, and post-excavation, mapped to the current occupational standards for archaeology.
