Bioarchaeology at York combines advanced osteoarchaeological techniques with the molecular analysis of human remains. You'll be encouraged to immerse yourself in the study of stable isotopes, lipid residue analysis, palaeoproteomics and ancient DNA – and play an active role in the development of new techniques in this constantly evolving branch of archaeology.
We offer students the unique opportunity to design their own masters course based on their interests and future careers, with a range of core subjects that will underpin their understanding of osteoarchaeology and biomolecular archaeology alongside a broad suite of option modules.
You'll be taught by leading academic specialists from the Archaeology Department’s BioArCh centre for bioarchaeology who work on a range of cutting-edge research and commercial projects that feed into their teaching. We offer students dedicated independent lab time (open labs) with human and animal bones to deepen their anatomical knowledge.
