In this degree you will cross the traditional arts/science divide by integrating core archaeology and ancient history units with a broad selection of science units, offered through a number of majors and minors including Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Earth Science, Geophysics and Spatial Information Science. You will embrace archaeology’s additional disciplines such as ancient languages, papyrology, epigraphy and numismatics. This structure, which is flexible enough to accommodate backgrounds in the arts, the sciences, or a blend of both, helps you shape a degree tailored to your personal interests. Explore and undertake research across disciplinary boundaries, and consider the ways in which archaeological practices can influence other disciplines or draw upon them, giving you the necessary knowledge and skills required for subsequent learning and research at the postgraduate level.
