Archaeology is divided into various individual disciplines. In the major subject "Archaeological Sciences" you will acquire broad knowledge of archaeological principles from the individual disciplines of prehistoric and early archaeology, classical archaeology as well as Christian archaeology and Byzantine art history. In the process, you will acquire sound methodological skills in the various disciplines on a theoretical and practical level: for example, on excursions or an excavation. You will also develop a historical awareness and the ability to critically examine historical facts and present and discuss your findings.

An integral part of the degree course is the MarSkills programme, in which you acquire attractive and future-oriented key skills (see ).
