Overview

Master of Archaeological and Evolutionary Science

This program - not offered at any other Australian University – equips you with the theory and skills required to undertake a scientific study of the past and present of humanity using Archaeology and/or Biological Anthropology perspectives. 

Students can tailor the program to their own training objectives, through hands-on experience with a variety of world-leading supervising specialists, materials, and fieldwork and laboratory resources. 

The Archaeological Science stream offers professionally-oriented training and the opportunity to focus on tailored independent research projects. 

By taking Biological Anthropology courses you will study humans and non-human primates as varied and dynamically changing biological organisms. 

You will explore primate evolution, ecology, behaviour and conservation; human evolution and behaviour; palaeopathology, bioarchaeology, and forensic archaeology/anthropology.

Four specialisations are available to match your interests:

  • Primate and Human Behaviour
  • Bioarchaeology and Forensic Anthropology
  • Environmental Archaeology and Climate Change
  • Human Evolution.
