Discover what it’s like to study Archaeology at Cambridge.

Interested in the human past and want to find out what that means at Cambridge? Do you enjoy history, art, language or science? Join us for a series of online webinars with lecturers from the Department of Archaeology.

The BA (Hons) Archaeology at Cambridge is made up of four subject areas: Archaeology, Biological Anthropology, Assyriology and Egyptology.

Each webinar will consist of an introduction to the subject area, a 30-minute taster lecture and a Q&A with a Cambridge academic. The final sessions will cover where Archaeology can take you in the future and how best to prepare for applying to Cambridge.

All sessions will take place on Zoom on Wednesday evenings from 5-6pm. Sessions and dates are as follows:

  • Wednesday 7th May – Archaeology with Prof Cyprian Broodbank
  • Wednesday 14th May – Egyptology with Dr Kate Spence
  • Wednesday 28th May – Assyriology/Mesopotamian Archaeology with Dr Steve Renette
  • Wednesday 4th June – Biological Anthropology with Dr Emma Pomeroy
  • Wednesday 11th June – What can you do with Archaeology? With Dr Dacia Viejo-Rose, Sarah-Jane Harknett, Dr Jody Joy and Dr Jimena Lobo Guerrero Arenas
  • Wednesday 18th June – How to apply and hear from some alumni with Dr Sam Lucy, Dr Matt Brudenell and Dr Emma Brownlee
