The PhD in Archaeology prepares students to conduct high-level, original research and develop advanced analytical methods in archaeology, with an interdisciplinary approach supported by eight research laboratories applying new technologies to archaeological data processing. The 90-credit programme is estimated to take four years of full-time study and centres on an original doctoral thesis. Applicants must hold a master's degree in archaeology or an equivalent qualification and must confirm a faculty research supervisor before admission; three assessment reports and a preliminary research project description are required as part of the application. The programme carries an English-language requirement that must be met before the degree is awarded, assessed through standardized English-proficiency tests or equivalent coursework. Admission is offered for the fall session only. The programme prepares graduates for research and teaching careers in archaeology and related heritage and cultural-resource fields.
