Museum Studies and Archaeology, BA Hons FullTime
The course is great, and most of the lectures are very good at making the content interesting and accessible to first years. Which makes the transition from collage to University. I loved the field trips and museums visits, it was great to see the techniques and theory in practise. I got a great personal tutor who massively helped me with getting the help I needed and offering structures to use for written work. It was also really helpful that the Course Tutor was a lecture of the subject so they could help with this and get to know you both in and out of lectures. Definitely worth attending the lectures, worth your time and money, I only had a about three that felt like duds over the year.
