University Archaeology UK

Description

University Archaeology UK represents the departments of Archaeology in UK universities. Archaeology provides a unique perspective on the human past, on what it is to be human. As the only subject that deals with the entire human past in all its temporal and spatial dimensions, it is fundamental to  understanding of how humanity has evolved, how  societies came into being, and how they changed over time.

The association's objectives are to:

• promote archaeology as an established, recognized and relevant academic discipline within higher education;
• provide a forum for open discussion and debate of matters of mutual interest to its members;
• furnish a means collectively to respond to consultations and proposals from government bodies, or other organizations relating directly or indirectly to the teaching and researching of archaeology in the context of higher education and the archaeological profession;
• epresent and promulgate the collective view of its members in any matters of mutual interest or concern relating directly or indirectly to archaeology within the higher education system;
• provide mutual support and assistance to members through sharing and exchange of experience and information.
