Our Department of Archaeology accredited degrees have been renewed for a further five years by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) and University Archaeology UK (UAUK).
Our students receive career-building practical and professional archaeological training throughout their degree. We are delighted that this has once again been recognised via this accreditation.
Amongst other factors, the re-accreditation panel particularly praised our Work Placement module. This module allows our students to engage at a professional level and gain invaluable experience.
Student membership of CIfA is offered to all students enrolled on an accredited programme. Student members will have access to:
Students will automatically join CIfA's New Generation SIG, aimed at early career archaeologists. They will also be added to CIfA's Professional Pathways mailing list.
Our Department of Archaeology is a leading centre for the study of archaeology and is ranked 6th in the world (QS World University Rankings by Subject 2025). We are an inclusive, vibrant and international community. Our students develop knowledge and gain essential and transferable skills through research-led teaching and lab-based training.
