Dear all,
Please could you pass the details of our new 'MSc in Bioarchaeology:
Plants, Animals and Society' on to any students who might be interested
- all applicants will be considered for a bursary and there are also two
25% fee scholarships available.
The degree will provide students with a sound practical, methodological
and theoretical grounding in the fields of archaeobotany and
zooarchaeology. Students will be encouraged to engage with both
scientific and anthropological approaches to answer mainstream
archaeological questions. Original research will be undertaken
throughout the degree, culminating in the production of a 15,000 word
dissertation, supported by a Research Skills module. Aside from these
core modules students will take four additional modules:
Practical Archaeobotany (30 credits)
Practical Zooarchaeology (30 credits)
The Anthropology of Traditional Farming: Archaeological Perspectives (15
credits)
Foodways in Archaeology (30 credits)
