Module overview

The dissertation is a personal research project which is completed with guidance from a personal supervisor. It takes place primarily over the summer period and should involve original research and high-quality formal presentation of material. The word limit allows enough space for both analysis and discussion, as well providing the required detailed account of methods used.

The specific format of the dissertation and the support provided in preparing it is provided in the Archaeology Dissertation Handbook.
