Program details

Overview

The programme prepares specialists to work independently in archaeological research, both fundamental and applied, building analytical skills and critical thinking for work spanning archaeology, heritage conservation, culture and public administration in state and private settings. The first year centres on obligatory modules covering landscape archaeology research methods and theoretical and didactic problems of Lithuanian history, alongside a substantial block of optional subjects. The third semester is given over to applied and scientific professional practice, and the final semester to the master's thesis. Graduates are described as suited to positions of greater responsibility in cultural heritage protection, museums, protected territories and archaeological research institutions, with the option to continue toward a doctoral degree in history.
