Admission and Enrolment
Admission requirements
The bachelor’s degree programme in Archaeology can be started either in the winter or summer semester.
You should be flexible and resilient, and should be interested in history. Working outside – whatever the weather – is part of any archaeologist’s life. On archaeological excavations, teamwork and good social skills are crucial. Care and perseverance are also needed for the academic analysis of features and finds.
Good foreign language skills, particularly in English, are another condition for being able to complete this programme successfully.
Language skills in German
Please note! The programme is primarily taught in German. For enrolment and successful studies,
you need knowledge of German at least at level B2
(legally stipulated here Immatrikulations-, Rückmelde- und Exmatrikulationssatzung)
of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
