Classical Archaeology and Classical Civilisation - BA (Hons)

UCL (University College London)

This degree examines the cultures, societies and material remains of Greek and Roman civilisations. Students will complete 70 days of partially-funded fieldwork, which includes excavation, museum work, research and digital fieldwork. For Classical Archaeology & Classical Civilisation BA students this may include a six-week Field Study Tour to the Mediterranean as part of the fieldwork component (also partially funded). The Field Study Tour is a programme of individual or group visits to sites and museums around the Mediterranean, allowing you to undertake first-hand examination of ancient sites, museums and objects in preparation for the final year dissertation. Alternatively, you can choose to do the partially-funded 70 days of fieldwork, or a reduced length Mediterranean Study Tour alongside other fieldwork.The programme provides a foundation in archaeological approaches, field methods and explores current archaeological issues focusing on themes of landscape, material culture, social change and social organisation. You will also take an Ancient Language module (Greek or Latin) at beginner or advanced level.
