Key learning outcomes The goal of consequential Master´s Subject of Study Archaeology is the extension of theoretical as well as practical knowledge of a student, who graduated before the Bachelor´s Subject of Study Archaeology. In consequential Master´s Subject of Study Archaeology is laying accent on improvement of student´s knowledge of archaeological theory and methodology (see courses "Archaeological theory and methodology", "Non-destructive Archaeology" and "Landscape Archaeology") and then on extension of overview of European connections of Prehistory till Modern Ages. While in Bachelor´s Subject of Study was the main attention aimed to knowledge of main epochs in Czech lands and especially in South Bohemian region, students will come to know the European context of archaeological data in individual periods of Prehistory till Modern Ages in the Master´s Subject of Study. Under their specialisations, which will be done by the subject of their Master´s work and which will be discussed in Specialisations Seminars, students can choose between a lot of compulsorily elective subjects, which cover both partial archaeological topics (e.g. materials and technologies of Central-European prehistory, Introduction to Classical Archaeology, Roman Imports etc.) and themes of related scientific disciplines (e.g. History, Etnoarchaeology, Anthropology, Conservations). Students will intensify their practical knowledge with the making of archaeological field-research, with the documentation of archaeological situations or with the laboratory processing of artefacts within the course Summer Archaeological Practise.
