3 years (Full-time) / n/a (Part-time) / n/a (Distance / E-Learning)
By studying Archaeology and Religious Studies BA (Joint Honours), students will study past human communities from material remains with an additional element of religion – one of the largest and most significant parts of human experience from the earliest traces of existence up to the present day. A Joint Honours degree is equal in status to a Single Honours degree, although the time spent on each subject is effectively halved. Students will gain valuable transferable skills ready for entry into the graduate job market, as well as enjoy a highly flexible modular programme with a wide range of career opportunities.
