Masters Degree Description

Heritage and archaeology is not only the study of the past, it is the study of ourselves. Archaeology feeds into current political debates around identity, how we feel about our past, and who we want to be. 

The Historic Environment sector is incredibly broad, taking in everything from museums and galleries, through to historic buildings, archaeological excavations and community projects. The MSc in Heritage and Archaeology responds to this by providing you with our broadest choice of modules and the flexibility to complete a tailored heritage sector degree to meet your unique professional needs. It is also a great programme for learners who know they want to work in the heritage sector but are unsure which area they will be most suited to.
