From a wide range of cognate fields such as classics, history, geology, or anthropology, with varying amounts of archaeological background

If you have a non-traditional academic trajectory or your most recent degree is five or more years in the past, please contact the postgraduate admissions administrator before making an application so we can advise you appropriately.
