This course has been designed to provide you with intensive study of selected topics related to Mediterranean Archaeology in order to help you deepen your understanding of this field.

The programme has been designed for students who already have a first degree in Archaeology and would suit you if you are seeking to build the range of skills necessary for research, particularly if you wish to focus on the Mediterranean.
The MA in Mediterranean Archaeology can be regarded as an ideal second degree if you wish to pursue the one-year MA and three years by research suggested by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).

In gaining a higher degree, you will be ideally placed to pursue an academic career in the field of Mediterranean Archaeology and this course provides an excellent stepping stone towards further postgraduate study, such as a PhD.

More widely, postgraduate qualifications are highly sought after by employers from a range of sectors who feel that graduates are able to demonstrate a deeper and broader knowledge of their subject area, as well as stronger research, communication and organisational skills.

As this course will give you extensive knowledge of the archaeology of the Mediterranean, as well as an understanding of its associated histories and cultures, you would be a suitable candidate for employment in a Mediterranean country.
