Summary module description:
The module is designed for students who wish to study abroad for one year, either in Europe as part of the ERASMUS exchange scheme, or in another country where the University has an exchange agreement. It is only open to Archaeology students who are on the degrees of Archaeology with Study Year Abroad.
Aims:
The aims of the study abroad year are to develop a knowledge of a range of subject areas relating to the study of Archaeology and to provide students with an understanding of how these subject areas are perceived and taught overseas. Students will develop an awareness of the different methodologies and will develop research and writing skills appropriate to their new learning environment.
Assessable learning outcomes:
By the end of the module students are expected to have:
- followed a prescribed number of appropriate courses at the partner institution, as agreed by both institutions on a Learning Agreement;
- completed the appropriate continuous assessment and examination requirements for these courses; and
- ensured that, where appropriate, they have completed or terminated in the required manner any contract or agreement with the partner institution.
Additional outcomes:
The module aims to encourage the development of communication and personal development skills and the fostering of a systematic approach to self-awareness. The overall experience should enhance future career development and employability.
Outline content:
Students will follow courses relating to subject areas they have already taken - in order to extend and develop their knowledge - and/or to subject areas where they have restricted knowledge but which they wish to study for personal, academic or career reasons.
Global context:
All undergraduate programmes in Archaeology may contain a study abroad year. This module formalises the requirements of this year.
