About this course
Discover how human civilisations evolved, and why people and societies have changed over time. Through the latest techniques and technologies, you'll investigate how our ancestors lived, from the earliest human origins, to Neolithic Britain, and Ancient Egypt. On BSc Archaeology with Year Abroad you could look into climate change at the end of the last ice age or what the chemical composition of human bones can tell us about diet during the medieval period.
You'll focus on scientific methods and techniques with options including:
-
studying human and animal bones
-
physics and chemistry of archaeological material
-
laboratory techniques for dating
-
maritime archaeology
You'll learn through research-led projects, practical field experience and field trips. You'll do a minimum of 3 weeks' fieldwork as part of an active research project. This could include:
-
excavating archaeological sites
-
recording a standing building
-
geophysical surveys
-
collecting archaeological material from ploughed fields
We have a purpose-built archaeology building, equipped with the latest science-based laboratories for Southampton BSc archaeology year abroad students to use. You'll gain hands-on experience with archaeological artefacts and materials, and receive the practical training needed for a career in archaeology.
You'll study archaeology with a year abroad at one of our partner institutions such as the University of Malta or the Universidad Autonoma de Barcelona. This will give you the chance to discover the theories and findings in exotic locations and boost your career opportunities.
We’re also offering up to 10 bursaries of £1000 each to incoming students (subject to criteria). These are from the Terry Mason Bursary and the University of Southampton Archaeology Bursary Fund.

Course structure
COVID-19: we've made some changes to the structure of the course for this academic year. Download the programme specification addendum in 'About this course' to learn more.
Year 1 introduces you to key areas of archaeology. In year 2, you'll select from a wide range of optional modules and prepare for your year abroad in year 3. Year 4 includes a dissertation and further optional modules.
On research-led digs you'll work closely with research staff who specialise in areas such as maritime and underwater archaeology and radiometric dating.
You can broaden your studies beyond archaeology by selecting language modules, or interdisciplinary modules from our Curriculum Innovation Programme, or by studying a minor subject.
You can also take a language module, which may count towards your degree. These modules cover 10 languages and range from absolute beginner to near-native speaker level.
You don't need to choose your modules when you apply. Your academic tutor will help you to customise your course.
Year 1 overview
Compulsory modules provide you with a grounding in:
-
anthropology
-
fieldwork and analysis
-
archaeological science
These cover the development of archaeological and anthropological thought, and the archaeological methods needed for fieldwork and analysis.
You'll also be able to choose from a range of optional modules, including human origins, and landscapes and seascapes of Britain's past.
Year 2 overview
You will develop your understanding of how archaeology relates to the modern world. We'll introduce you to statistical concepts and methods in archaeology, through a quantitative data analysis module.
You'll also prepare for fieldwork with at least 3 weeks of practical experience in a field school or research project in the UK or overseas. You will also prepare for your year abroad.
Optional modules cover subjects including:
-
scientific diving
-
archaeological dating
-
archaeological surveying of landscapes and monuments
Year 3 overview
For your archaeology BSc abroad year, you'll study at one of our partner institutions, for example in Cyprus, France, Greece, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland or Spain. You could arrange an approved work placement as an alternative.
Year 4 overview
You'll carry out research in an area that interests you and write this up for your dissertation. This is an opportunity to demonstrate your planning, research, data collation, analysis, and communication skills.
You'll also be able to specialise in different periods, regions or methods in archaeology. For example, you could study Neolithic Britain, Iron Age societies or Ancient Egypt, or choose to focus on geographic information systems (GIS), molecular archaeology or museums and heritage.
