About

The DPhil in Archaeology at the University of Oxford provides students with the opportunity to pursue substantial independent research across a wide range of periods and subjects, including British, European, African, and Asian archaeology, and in theoretical aspects of the discipline.

Overview

About the program

Oxford’s School of Archaeology is one of the few departments in the world where many diverse aspects of archaeological research are brought together to address critical questions about our past.

The department’s graduate courses are based around the three main centres of archaeological research in Oxford, working together to offer support and facilities to graduates:

  • Institute of Archaeology
  • Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art
  • Ioannou Centre for Classical and Byzantine Studies

One of the great strengths of Oxford archaeology is the opportunity for cross-disciplinary research, making use of the expertise in more than one centre.

Archaeological research at the University of Oxford has a long and distinguished history, with current expertise and interests in the development of human societies from the Palaeolithic to the Early Modern periods, and spanning much of the globe.

Programme Structure

Research areas include:
  • Bioarchaeology
  • Chronology
  • Eurasian Prehistory
  • Historical and Classical
  • Materials and Technology
  • Palaeolithic
