Anthropology and Archaeology are highly complementary subjects, ideal for a Joint Honours Degree which explores the study of human communities both past and present.
Anthropology and Archaeology are both very broad subjects which overlap with many others including history, classics, sociology and biosciences.
A degree in Anthropology and Archaeology equips you with many practical and transferable skills including conducting fieldwork, designing research projects, handling data ethically and communicating sensitively across language and cultural barriers.
