Course summary

Uncover secrets of the human past with an Archaeology BA Honours degree, and develop the analytical and critical-thinking skills vital in a range of careers.

Course overview

Explore the world of Archaeology at Newcastle University, on the doorstep of Hadrian’s Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site

We make full use of our unique location by providing a range of fieldwork and fieldtrip opportunities.

Our Archaeology degrees are accredited by the Chartered Institute for Archaeology (CIfA) and University Archaeology UK (UAUK)

On our programme you'll:

  • gain a thorough understanding of archaeology, from prehistory to the recent past.
  • explore how archaeology has changed our understanding of the past
  • learn specialist analytical techniques
  • focus on specific cultures or global regions

You’ll also have the freedom to shape your own Archaeology journey. You can choose to graduate with one of the following:

  • BA in Archaeology
  • BSc in Archaeology (subject to choosing Archaeological Science modules)

There is no need to select a particular route before you start. As you progress through your degree you’ll choose from a range of modules and tailor your options to suit your interests.

Based alongside Historians and Classicists, we also have interdisciplinary modules on offer that allow you to explore the intersections between archaeology and other fields of study.

With cutting edge laboratory facilities, an on-campus museum and plenty of fieldwork opportunities (in the UK and abroad) we ensure you develop essential practical skills as well as those of a researcher, preparing you for various careers, including those in the heritage sector and beyond.
