Programme structure
The programme introduces you to the theory and practice of independent research.
You will be allocated two expert supervisors with whom you will work closely throughout the year.
All students take one prescribed course, Research Sources and Strategies in Archaeology, during the year of study and may attend other classes by agreement with the programme director.
Specific additional skills that may be required in order to undertake the research will be assessed jointly by student and supervisors before the programme starts. Training in transferable research and professional skills is also available, both within the School of History, Classics and Archaeology and through the Institute for Academic Development (IAD).
Dissertation
You will undertake a research project and produce a dissertation which is submitted on an assigned date in August.
