The Bachelor of Arts honours program serves as both a bridge to postgraduate studies and the pinnacle of undergraduate achievement. This intensive year can mark the conclusion of your academic journey while expanding your intellectual horizons, refining research skills, and enhancing analytical and communication methods.

The Department specializes in three research areas for honours candidates: Australian, Western/Central Asian, and Classical archaeology. Proposals focusing on other archaeological subjects will receive individual consideration.
