Archaeology

Description

Key components of the course encompass landscape and settlement studies, artefact analysis, the study of human and animal remains, religious and ritual practice, marine archaeology, forensic science, anthropology, cultural change through time, and the practice and management of archaeology in the UK and abroad.

Bournemouth is ideally situated with some of Britain's most iconic archaeological and historic sites, such as Boxgrove, Avebury, Stonehenge, Maiden Castle, Corfe Castle and Fishbourne Roman Palace, all within easy traveling distance.
