Unlock the secrets of the past by studying the only discipline that looks at the human journey as a whole.

As a Bachelor of Archaeology student at La Trobe, you'll study humanity's past through material cultures and physical evidence. You'll learn through hands-on study that teaches you sought-after skills and their real-world applications. Gain the knowledge necessary for ethical heritage management, archaeological fieldwork and working with traditional owner groups, particularly Australia's First Peoples.

Advance your career through professional internships or placements with our range of industry and government partners. You'll also have the opportunity to complete internships, field schools, exchanges and study tours internationally. Previous students have travelled to locations like South Africa, Nepal, Sir Lanka, the United Kingdom, Ireland, China and Jordan.

Graduate ready for a career in specialist fields such as professional archaeology, cultural heritage management or research, or use the transferable skills to create your own career path.
