The Department of Archaeology offers a two-year research masters degree to applicants with a good honours degree in archaeology from a recognized university. This full-time programme also has a PhD-track feature for students who are approved for doctoral studies after the first year.

Program Structure

Students taking the research masters programme will receive training and academic supervision as part of a larger Research Group in the department. Each student agrees to undertake a particular research project leading to a major thesis after two years.

Admission Requirements

Entry to the M.Phil. programme requires:

• A 2.1 honours BA degree in archaeology or closely related discipline from a recognized university
• The equivalent in the Higher Diploma in Archaeology or comparable programme

Application and Selection Process

Each MPhil applicant will initially be interviewed by the Professor of Archaeology and subsequently by the director of the Research Group they are interested in joining.

Program Duration and Upgrade

MPhil students are required to complete their research within two years of initial registration, unless they upgrade to a PhD in the second year.
