National Student Survey: Our BA degree programmes in Archaeology and in Ancient History and Archaeology both gained remarkable 100% satisfaction ratings from our 2011 graduates.
Teaching: We have been awarded an excellent score of 23 out of 24 for our degree programmes by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education.
Research: In the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise, 62.5% of Manchester Archaeology's research outputs were in the 3* or 4* categories - internationally excellent or world-leading.
Archaeology can change how you think about the world!Archaeology offers a fascinating journey of discovery into the material and social dimensions of past human societies. It provides unique insights into human origins and cultural diversity, without which our knowledge of humanity would be very impoverished. Understanding how others have lived and perceived the world gives students and the wider public a different vantage point from which to understand their own world. |
