Embark on a journey through time with the BA (Hons) History and Archaeology at the University of Winchester, a dynamic undergraduate degree designed for those fascinated by the human past. You will explore how societies have evolved, from the earliest human settlements to the complexities of the modern era, by critically evaluating historical sources and archaeological evidence. This multidisciplinary course is ideal if you possess a keen analytical mind and a desire to understand the connections between past events and contemporary issues, offering a robust foundation in both historical inquiry and archaeological methods.
This full-time, on-campus programme is structured over three years, allowing you to delve deeply into subjects such as Global Histories, Archaeological Fieldwork, and the Archaeology of Past Societies. You will engage with practical techniques, including archaeological methods and artefact analysis, and develop your research skills through modules like 'Sources in History' and an 'Extended Independent Study' in your final year. You will graduate with a comprehensive understanding of historical and archaeological research, prepared for further academic study or careers in heritage, museums, research, or education.
