About this Study Course
Embark on a captivating journey through the annals of human history with our Bachelor of Arts in Archaeologies program. Rooted in the exploration of past cultures, this interdisciplinary degree delves into the historical and cultural-historical contexts of ancient civilizations. Our program offers a comprehensive study of four distinct subfields: Classical archaeology, prehistoric and early-historic archaeology, Christian archaeology, and Egyptology.
Overview
From the splendor of ancient Greece and Rome to the dawn of human civilization in Europe, students explore the diverse tapestry of human experience through archaeological inquiry. Christian archaeology sheds light on relics from late antiquity and the early Byzantine Age, while Egyptology uncovers the mysteries of late Egyptian high culture, encompassing language, script, religion, and culture.
As majors in Archaeologies, students have the opportunity to immerse themselves in three of the four subfields, tailoring their academic journey to their interests and career aspirations. Our program places a strong emphasis on practical experience, offering opportunities for field trips, hands-on work with original artifacts, and internships.
