What Canterbury Christ Church University says about their program:
A foundation year helps you develop the study skills and self-confidence needed for higher education when you don’t reach the entry requirements for your subject.
Discover your past and what it truly means to be human with an Archaeology degree from Canterbury Christ Church University. With its rich heritage, Canterbury is the perfect destination in which to explore your passion for Archaeology.
Choosing an archaeology course taught next to a UNESCO World Heritage Site means you will live amongst a thriving archaeological community. With many of our graduates moving on to work with local heritage organisations such as the Canterbury Archaeological Trust, CCCU is the ideal destination for studying archaeology.
Explore this subject using a varied and cross-disciplinary approach. Our course is both practical and academic and draws upon approaches from the humanities, as well as the natural and social sciences. You will also engage with the wider forensic science, heritage, and environmental conservation sectors, to name just a few.
What’s more, as well as having the option to take up to eight weeks of direct training on-site at The Culver Archaeological Project, you'll also be able to study archaeology abroad, highlighting the many prospects that our degree offers.
Not only will our Archaeology degree open many opportunities upon graduation, but you'll be choosing a degree that has a high student satisfaction rate with 93% of our Archaeology (including Foundation Year) students being satisfied with our teaching (National Student Survey 2023).
We know employers are looking for dynamic, open-minded graduates who can adapt, innovate, and collaborate. This is why we have designed a new way of teaching and learning to ensure that you are work-ready for when you graduate
