Archaeology degrees at York
Archaeology is the study of the human past. Understanding our past gives us valuable insight into ourselves and our future.
At York we offer five exciting Archaeology degrees, each with different perspectives and specialisms in Archaeology. All courses share a common first year, introducing you to a wide range of periods and places studied by archaeologists and to archaeological methods and theories. As part of your first year you will participate in a range of archaeological fieldwork, including three full weeks of excavation.
After the first year you will specialise, choosing from a range of modules on your chosen degree. All of our courses are taught through a mix of lectures, small-group seminars, practicals and field trips.
