Overview
The aim of the Archaeology (research) programme at the University of Groningen is to provide you with the theoretical abilities and methodological skills which will enable you to become a successful researcher.
You will develop a thorough understanding of key debates in archaeology, develop a critical attitude and acquire essential organizational, networking and teaching skills. Most importantly, you can tailor the programme to your needs and special interests.
The Research Master in Archaeology has a broad geographical and chronological coverage – from the Arctic and North-western Europe to the Mediterranean and the Near East, from the Mesolithic to historical archaeology.
In addition, the programme will increase your chances in the job market: You can do an internship, or become research assistant; you will also be trained in writing peer-reviewed articles, grant applications, and a PhD proposal.
Job prospects
The degree is excellent preparation for a research career in archaeology. While many of our graduates are successful in capturing a PhD position in the Netherlands or abroad, they also have the possibility of obtaining other research-oriented positions (f.i. in museums, heritage institutions, and research institutes).
