This course focus on bioarchaeology as you prepare for a career in research, the commercial sector or heritage management. You will need to apply to the MA Archaeology programme, and upon enrolment you will have the option to select the recommended modules to build your own pathway to specialise in bioarchaeology. You will gain an effective grounding in archaeological practice and research while simultaneously concentrating your studies on bioarchaeology research areas through your dissertation, a core period module and a themed Issues and debates module. Our assessments are varied, providing a mix of vocational and research opportunities, including: skeletal and lab-based reports; in-class practical assessments; food diaries; poster and conference presentations; article critiques; essays; exams; and seminar presentations. On completion of this course our recent graduates have found employment in professional archaeology, museums, publishing, journalism, radio and television, the heritage and leisure industries, the fields of conservation (including the natural and built environment), government office, and teaching. Others have gone onto to further study through funded PhD projects.
