Studying Archaeology

I want to study archaeology – how can I get more information?

Archaeology can be studied in the UK across a broad age range and in both formal and informal education, from a community project based on archaeology through to a doctoral research degree at university. To cover all of these within one page wouldn’t be very useful so we have broken them down into qualification / age-related sections grouped under either ‘formal’ or ‘informal’ headings, each with their own page.

Each of the following pages will explain what courses are available, what subjects include archaeology and what you need to get onto the course as well as other useful information.
