Overview

The DPhil is a full-time degree that is examined only by thesis and there is no formal course of instruction. Applicants are encouraged to contact prospective supervisors, academics in the School of Archaeology, that share similar research interests so that they can discuss project ideas and get advice.

Features

Projects which cross disciplinary boundaries, for example in archaeological science or cultural heritage, are also welcome. Recently completed DPhil projects are listed on the School website.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

For this course, the allocation of graduate supervision is the responsibility of the School of Archaeology and it is not always possible to accommodate the preferences of incoming graduate students to work with a particular member of staff.

Under exceptional circumstances a supervisor may be found outside the School of Archaeology.
