Description | Archaeology explores a wide range of evidence that documents the human past – from artefacts, monuments and settlements to entire landscapes – and from these interprets how societies have adapted and developed. Modules focus on different periods of World, European and Irish/British archaeology, from human origins to modern times and heritage. Queen's University Belfast is one of the best places to study Archaeology in the UK, scoring first place for student experience in the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2020 and first place for student satisfaction in the Complete University Guide 2020.
In addition to progressively developing general and specific knowledge and skills in Archaeology, through excavation, fieldwork, overseas fieldtrips, laboratory and practical work, students on the Archaeology with French degree develop linguistic proficiency in French and analyse Francophone cultures (literature, cinema, linguistics, art, history) in the broadest sense. Between Stages 2 and 4, students on this degree programme spend a year abroad in a Francophone country, studying Archaeology at one of QUB's Francophone partner institutions. At present, for Archaeology this is the University of Burgundy at Dijon, in the heart of metropolitan France. | | |
