Overview
It aims to train students to evaluate and draw up reports on archaeological interventions so that they can work as specialists in the field of archaeology or in the management of archaeological heritage.
It has three main areas:
- Research into human palaeoecology and prehistory, palaeoanthropology, geology and palaeoontology of the Quaternary.
- Archaeological intervention.
- Management, conservation and socialisation of archaeological heritage.
Students can choose between two editions of the programme: the Interuniversity Master's Degree in Quaternary Archeology and Human Evolution (Erasmus Mundus) and the Master's Degree in Quaternary Archeology and Human Evolution. The main difference between the two degrees is that students are required to undertake an international Erasmus Mundus mobility stay as part of the interuniversity and international version. Therefore, students on both degrees have the same classes except for the stay abroad.
Career
