Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Child Development and Education] From University of Plymouth

• The Oxford degree is unique in the way it combines archaeology and anthropology throughout the course, offering an unusually broad perspective on human societies from earliest prehistory to the present. Six institutions specialise in these subjects: the Institutes of Archaeology and of Social and Cultural Anthropology, the Ashmolean Museum, the Pitt Rivers Museum, the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, and the Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art. All play a key role in the degree, are supported by world-class libraries and are well equipped with laboratories and computing resources.

OxfordÕs Archaeology and Anthropology course offers a comprehensive guide to the richness and diversity of human cultural experience throughout space and time.
