"I chose Bradford’s MSc in Scientific Methods in Archaeology because it offered a broad base from which to approach interpretations of the past, and this complemented my history background. The division is lively, active and very supportive. Hands-on learning is encouraged wherever possible in modules, with an emphasis on both the nuts-and-bolts scientific methodology, and the more esoteric interpretation of archaeology. Throughout the year, evening seminars showcased current research across the discipline within a fairly wide understanding of 'archaeological science'."
Sara Gillies, MSc Scientific Methods in Archaeology (now called MSc Archaeological Sciences), 2007/08.
"The members of staff, with their various
areas of expertise, were able to provide a very well-rounded curriculum;
this was complemented by the extensive skeletal collections unique to
Bradford. I left feeling I had received a world-class education that
could not have been realized at any other institution. Choosing the
Biological Anthropology Research Centre at Bradford for my Master’s
Degree has thus far been the most rewarding decision of my academic
career."
Tim Gocha, MSc Human Osteology and Palaeopathology 2007/08.
"As a Commonwealth Scholarship holder, I was able to chose from all of the universities in the United Kingdom for my postgraduate studies. Quite simply there was no contest. Bradford is the best of the best in this field, both in the UK and on a global scale."
Ronika Power, MSc Human Osteology and Palaeopathology 2006/07.
"One of the factors that distinguishes the Forensic Archaeology course at the University of Bradford from similar courses is the focus on hands-on practicals, which are run by pioneers in the field with a vast amount of experience."
Paul McDonald, MSc Forensic Archaeology and Crime Scene Investigation 2007/08
"I thoroughly enjoyed the masters course at Bradford, benefitting
from both the excellent teaching and equipment on offer and from the
availability of NERC funding for my studies... A highly
recommended course with a deservedly known reputation for excellence."
Nathan Thomas, MSc Archaeological Prospection 2007/08
