Course Overview

We are proud to host an on-site, professional archaeological unit, the award-winning University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) - the team that found King Richard III. ULAS offer HEAR and CIFA-accredited internships and provide valuable training and professional experience alongside your academic studies.

All our degrees provide transferable skills in communication, presentation, critical analysis, and teamwork. This will be critical for your future career, whether in archaeological studies or one of the wide range of professions that attract our graduates. It doesn't matter if you have little or no previous experience in archaeology or ancient history; we have designed our courses for maximum flexibility. This allows you to choose how you want to specialize or diversify as your knowledge and understanding develop.

For single and joint archaeology degrees, practical experience is a key element of our courses. You will participate in excavations and learn various fieldwork techniques throughout your degree to equip you with the skills and knowledge to interpret archaeological material.

Our dedicated work experience and outreach staff will organize placements for you in schools, heritage organizations, museums, field archaeology units, archives, laboratories, and on external projects – complementing the volunteering provision within the University.

As part of our year 2 Heritage Skills and year 3 Archaeology and Ancient History in Education modules, you can do a placement/project in a school or heritage setting where you work with a teacher/heritage mentor to gain a range of experience and to design and deliver a lesson plan or outreach activity. These modules provide an excellent foundation for a PGCE or a career in heritage management.

We also offer Archaeology and Classics in the Community internships.
