2. Description of the Programme
Exeter’s Archaeology degrees enable you to explore both the academic and practical dimensions of a uniquely fascinating discipline. Building on a firm foundation of the subject provided in the first year, the degrees give you a wide variety of choice to follow your particular interests. These can cover the microscopic analysis of ancient artefacts to the exploration of entire fossilised landscapes, from understanding prehistoric villages to recording historic buildings; the subject is broad, multi-disciplinary and dynamic. As you work through your degree, you can develop your own specialisation, culminating in a dissertation supported by one-to-one tuition.
Studying Anthropology at Exeter offers you a unique experience of the discipline, covering its different aspects and subfields, including social/cultural anthropology, archaeological anthropology, and physical anthropology. You will explore both the empirical work that anthropologists have produced as well as the exciting theoretical debates that drive the discipline, and have the opportunity to acquire a range of methods and research skills. You will develop a critical understanding of contemporary and past society and culture, through the lens of a broad range of case studies in different geographical and cultural setting. A wide range of options on topics as varied as childhood, human-animal interactions, consumption, Africa, and ethnomusicology, will let you pursue your personal interests in depth. You will also have the opportunity to trace the human story from pre-history onwards and learn how human beings have evolved, adapted and formed societies in the past in modules in archaeology and physical anthropology.
Advice and guidance on your programme can be sought from your personal tutor and programme director. All staff offer regular office hours that you can drop into without a prior appointment for this purpose.
3. Educational Aims of the Programme
1. To offer an excellent Honours-level education in Archaeology and Anthropology, which meets the criteria for Honours level awards as set out in the FHEQ and the Universitys statement of Levels and Awards, and which at least meets the standards set in the national Subject Benchmarking statements for both subject areas.
2. To encourage graduates to become useful, productive and questioning members of society.
3. To provide a stimulating and supportive environment for students that is informed by research where deemed appropriate.
4. To work in partnership with students to produce graduates who are grounded in the main themes of Archaeology through a combination of both broad and detailed focuses on particular aspects of the past, study of a range of time periods, and study of different geographical areas.
5. To work in partnership with students to produce graduates who are grounded in the main themes of Social Anthropology through a combination of modules which develop a deep understanding of the diversity of societies and cultures, and to think comparatively and analytically about key questions and problems in studying the worlds of other people and our own.
6. To offer a structured framework of study which ensures that within the time span of the programme every student follows a balanced and complementary range of modules, whilst allowing sufficient choice to ensure that students are able to follow individual areas of learning.
7. To work in partnership with students to produce graduates who understand the various methods which Archaeologists and Anthropologists use to study past and present human societies; and who can analyse the organisation and development of societies and gain competence in dealing with the various types of evidence and the methodological problems associated with studying historical and contemporary cultures.
8. To develop students competence in the subject-specific skills required in Archaeology and in Anthropology through practical engagement with primary and empirical data.
9. To expose students to different teaching and assessment methods within an appropriate learning environment, supported by feedback, monitoring and pastoral care.
10. To provide a range of academic and personal skills which will prepare students from varied educational backgrounds for employment or further study, which will foster mental agility and adaptability, and which will enable them to deploy their knowledge, abilities and skills in their entirety, displaying balance and judgement in a variety of circumstances.
You will acquire advanced competence in core academic, personal and key skills, providing a basis for career progression in the academic and professional worlds. You will be exposed to a variety of teaching and assessment methods within appropriate learning environments, supported by feedback and monitoring. You will also be given an opportunity to develop your independent study skills through a piece of individual research.
The programme provides an intellectually stimulating, satisfying experience of learning and studying, and forms a sound basis for further study in Archaeology, Anthropology or related disciplines. It aims to develop a range of subject-specific, academic and transferable skills, including high order conceptual literacy and communication skills of value in graduate employment. This programme encourages you to become a global citizen, a productive, useful and questioning member of society, and provides thorough training for further study or a specialist career. You may utilise the skills you develop in a range of sectors, including Heritage, Museums, Archaeology, Consultancy, the Civil Service, Education, Teaching, Research, and Charities.
This programme is intended;
4. Programme Structure
The programme is studied over three years full-time (or up to six years part-time). Study is undertaken in three stages, with each stage comprising 120 credits made up of either 15 or 30-credit modules. All students must study the specified core modules. Modules marked with an asterisk are 'non-condonable', that is if failed the failed assessment(s) must be retaken for a maximum mark of 40%. Optional modules aim to look in some depth at a relatively narrow area of study using some primary source materials and encouraging a critical approach to the interpretation of those sources. Optional modules focus on
practical aspects of archaeology and aim to teach a practical skill, and an appreciation of its application to archaeological study.
The programme is divided into units of study called ‘modules’ which are assigned a number of ‘credits’. The credit rating of a module is proportional to the total workload, with 1 credit being nominally equivalent to 10 hours of work.
A full list of modules is available at
http://intranet.exeter.ac.uk/humanities/studying/undergraduates/modules/
5. Programme Modules
The following tables describe the programme and constituent modules. Constituent modules may be updated, deleted or replaced as a consequence of the annual programme review of this programme. Details of the modules currently offered may be obtained from the College web site
http://intranet.exeter.ac.uk/humanities/studying/undergraduates/
The modules are designed like building blocks, with modules at Stages 2 and 3 building on the work of the preceding stage, helping you to progressively develop your academic skills. The 'level' of a module within these stages is designated by the first number in the module code. You will find that your work becomes more specialized as it becomes more advanced. The availability of all modules as options is subject to timetable and staffing constraints, and to permission from the relevant Director of Education.
Assessment marks obtained at Stage 1 do not contribute to the overall mark for the summative classification of the award, although 90 credits must be awarded for progression to Stage 2.
University regulations stipulate that students taking a 360 credit Honours degree programme must take no more than 150 credits of level 1 modules and not less than 90 credits of level 3 modules. The overall mark for the summative degree assessment is calculated from the marks for Stages 2 and 3, which are weighted in the ratio 1:2.
In each stage you will take 120 credits in total, 60 in Archaeology and 60 in Anthropology
Stage 1
In your first year, the modules you take will give you a solid grounding in the techniques of archaeology and the key topics that archaeologists study in all periods, from the earliest times to the later Middle Ages. Anthropology modules will focus on social and cultural anthropology. You will study fundamental questions about society and culture, investigating the rich diversity of human life across the globe.

1. Understand basic archaeological techniques and appreciate their major advantages and disadvantages. | Archaeology 1-3 are developed initially through ARC1020 followed by ARC2003/4, and developed in increasing sophistication through options during stages 2 and 3. 4 and 5 are developed through ARC1010 and then through various thematic options at stages 2 and 3. 6-8 are developed through ARC1020 at stage 1 and at stage 2 through ARC2003/4, and ARC3000 at stage 3. 9 is developed through the optional thematic modules taken across all three stages. The level of competence expected of students intensifies at each stage of the programme. Methodological issues area introduced through ARC1020 and developed through ARC2003/4. The chronological and thematic framework is introduced in ARC1010 at stage 1 and developed through many options at stages 2 and 3. ARC3000 at stage 3 brings the methodological and thematic elements together in an independent research dissertation. Anthropology | Archaeology Archaeology modules will be assessed by essays, reports and/or exams and also individual and group presentations (ILOs 1-9). Exams in the introductory module (ARC 1020) put particular emphasis on ILOs 1, 5, 6, 7. Fieldwork reports in ARC2003/4 will focus on ILOs 1, 2, 3, 6.The dissertation module (ARC 3000) will assess all ILOs. Anthropology |

1. Draw thematic comparisons between material from different sources. | These skills are developed throughout the degree programme, but the emphasis becomes more complex as students move from stage to stage. They are developed through lectures and seminars, written work, and oral work (both presentation and class discussion). In Archaeology, these skills are developed through a mixture of teaching and learning methods including lectures (normally 2 hours), seminars, practical classes/fieldwork and tutorials. The assessment is made through a combination of examinations (including essays and gobbet passages for comment); term-time essays and oral presentations. The marking criteria are available in the Student Handbooks. Anthropology will be taught in lectures (on level one, ANT1004, ANT1005 and ANT1003) to introduce the discipline and these are supported by tutorials where lecture content and course readings are discussed. There are core readings to be done on a weekly basis and further readings in preparation for or as part of assignments and assessments. ANT1008 has three introductory lectures but mostly consists of group work (leading to a group presentation and team report) and individual project work supported by weekly group discussions. Stage two and three modules (except the dissertation) consist of lectures and seminars which again will require both weekly readings in preparation of seminar discussions and further readings for assignments and assessments. The dissertation will be mainly based on independent readings under the guidance by an assigned supervisor. Students will only partly have prescribed readings and will need to find texts using the library resources including the electronic library. Further they will need to use the internet to source information and deploy that information adequately in accordance with a competent assessment of the nature of the source. Seminars and tutorials will require students’ active participation in discussions. | Archaeology Exams: ILOs 1-11, 13, 16 Essays: ILOs 1-13, 16 Dissertation: 1-12, 16 Presentations: ILOs 8, 14, 15 Projects: ILOs: 1-2, 16, 17 Anthropology Exams: ILOs 2-9, 13, 16, 17, 19 Essays: ILOs 1-13, 16-19 Dissertation: ILOs 1-13, 16-19 Presentations: ILOs 1-4, 7-9,14-19 Projects: ILOs 2,4-6, 8-12, 15, 18, 19 |

1. Undertake independent study and work to deadlines. | Archaeology 1 is an essential part of the successful completion of the programme, notably the Dissertation. 2 is developed through the requirement that all written work be word-processed, and through use of the internet as a general research tool in all modules. There is further scope for developing IT skills through options. 3 is developed through a variety of written assignments and tutorials throughout the programme. 4 is developed through appraisals and the qualitative self-assessment involved in completing cover sheets for all assignments. 5 is developed through group work and seminars, which form an important component of many option modules. The skills in 6-10 are developed through interaction in seminars and in discussion with tutors about essay work, and in response to criticism both collective and individual. There is particular emphasis on 6 during fieldwork (ARC2003/4). 11 is developed through the Archaeology Fieldwork Project (ARC2004) at stage 2 and dissertation work (ARC3000) at stage 3 (both of which work towards an end-of-module deadline). 9 and 10 are developed through optional thematic modules at stages 2 and 3. 12 relates to ARC2003/4 and optional advanced fieldwork and placement modules. Anthropology will be taught in lectures (on level one, ANT1004, ANT1005 and ANT1003) to introduce the discipline and these are supported by tutorials where lecture content and course readings are discussed. There are core readings to be done on a weekly basis and further readings in preparation for or as part of assignments and assessments. ANT1033 has three introductory lectures but mostly consists of group work (leading to a group presentation and team report) and individual project work supported by weekly group discussions. Stage two and three modules (except the dissertation) consist of lectures and seminars which again will require both weekly readings in preparation of seminar discussions and further readings for assignments and assessments.
