This degree programme covers the art and material culture of Europe, the Mediterranean region and Africa from the third millennium BC to the present; this course is a broadly based educational course with varied career prospects, but does not offer as much fieldwork training as single honours archaeology and is therefore less suitable for students wanting to become field archaeologists.

Year 2: Modules may include; introduction to African archaeology; Roman Britain; aspects of Neolithic and Bronze Age in Atlantic Europe; interpreting the past (anthropological perspectives; Greek art; contemporary art; theory and philosophy of archaeology; perspectives in art history; knowledge of the discipline of art history and visual studies.
