In Classical Studies you will examine the literature, art and culture of the Greek and Roman worlds. In the Archaeology modules, practical aspects involve the opportunity to participate in the Field School at the Roman town of Silchester.

Many of our students go on to develop successful careers in the archaeology/heritage sectors. Our recent graduates are represented amongst the staff of major employers such as Oxford Archaeology, Wessex Archaeology, the Museum of London Archaeological Service, English Heritage and the British Museum as well as local companies such as Thames Valley Archaeological Services. The interdisciplinary nature of our degrees and their emphasis on transferable skills provide an excellent platform for postgraduate degree study in archaeology and a wide range of careers outside the archaeology/heritage sector. Our recent graduates have gained employment in career paths as diverse as teaching, policing, communications, IT, management, finance, marketing and tourism, library/museums, local government and public relations.
