University courses
University courses
Search degrees, check A-level, IB Diploma or AP subjects, or follow a pathway from school subjects to a career. None of these tools is an offer of a place.
Explore a pathway
Move between school subjects, a degree and possible work. A link is not an offer and not proof that a degree is enough for a regulated job.
Choose a branch, then a course.

GCSE and IGCSE preparation
- English and mathematics
Often expected at GCSE or IGCSE. Grade thresholds differ, and International GCSEs are not automatically the same as GCSEs.
A-level subjects
Nothing to show for this stage yet.
University courses
- Archaeology
No specific A-level is universal. History, geography or a science can all be relevant.
- History
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
- Anthropology
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
- Information Management
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
Possible careers
- Archaeologist
Common route. The usual first degree. Postgraduate study or long field experience is often needed for professional posts.
- Museum curator
Alternative route. A possible background. Curatorial posts often expect a postgraduate museum qualification.
- Archivist
Related, but not enough on its own. Archives usually expect a postgraduate archives qualification. Archaeology is not that course.
This is a possible educational route, not an offer of a place and not a prediction of a job. Direct, common, alternative and postgraduate routes are not the same thing.
