The Graduate Certificate in Archaeological Studies is designed for students who have developed an interest in the subject, but who may have relatively little prior formal background in it, and who do not have the background or disciplinary interests to pursue Masters degrees in archaeology and cognate fields.

The Graduate Certificate in Archaeological Practice coursework provides students with a high level understanding of archaeological methods and the human past as revealed through archaeology. This will be appropriate for students who have developed an interest in the subject, but who (i) may have relatively little prior practical training in archaeology, or (ii) do not yet have the background or disciplinary interests to pursue more specialized postgraduate degrees requiring field archaeology and cognate fields.

Prerequisites

Applicants for entry to the Graduate Certificate in Archaeological Studies should have obtained a three year Bachelor degree from an approved tertiary education institution, and/or relevant professional experience or equivalent background obtained overseas.
