The aim of the Master's degree programme Prehistoric Archaeology / Geoarchaeology is to acquire in-depth knowledge in various areas of prehistoric archaeology as well as scientific methods and subject-specific working methods.

The field of prehistoric archaeology / geoarchaeology covers epochs and spaces whose history is primarily revealed through archaeological finds.

From this, students can complete two modules of their choice.
