We offer access to internationally renowned scientific research laboratories in palaeopathology, DNA, conservation, isotopes, environmental archaeology, luminescence dating, and soil and bone chemistry. Anthropology at Durham – We’re passionate about teaching the next generation of anthropologists. We cover all the major subfields and carry out some of the most innovative research in contemporary anthropology. Here we not only offer social, evolutionary, biological and medical anthropology, but we are interested in how these sub-fields can be integrated and when they are pursuing quite different questions altogether.
Global Pasts: Archaeology, Heritage, People is a new open-access journal covering archaeology, anthropology and heritage studies in their widest perspective, emphasising the connection between various disciplines in order to better understand the human past. This includes both scientific and humanities-based approaches. The journal publishes original research articles, review articles, and short communications and strongly encourages authors to make their data fully available.

We offer 2 innovative, one-year MSc courses, which combine both a taught and a research component, as well as an MSc undertaken purely by research.
MSc Biological Anthropology This taught Master’s places a strong emphasis on critical thinking and understanding of both the broad field of Biological Anthropology and the specialisms within. This innovative MSc allows you to focus your studies through one of two routes: The Human and Primate Behaviour route/The Human Evolutionary Anatomy route https://www.kent.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/2707/biological-anthropology-msc
MSc Forensic Osteology and Field Recovery Methods This programme equips you with the ability to excavate and analyse human remains. Learn the practical skills needed to recover human remains in the field. Gain the theoretical knowledge needed to reconstruct biological profiles from hard tissue, supported by laboratory-based training. https://www.kent.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/1231/forensic-osteology-and-field-recovery-methods
MSc By Research in Biological Anthropology You will have the opportunity to conduct an independent research project supervised by one of our internationally recognised Biological Anthropologists. Our interests stretch across the range of biological and evolutionary anthropology. We are actively recruiting new research students, and if you have an idea or topic you want to pursue, then we will help you develop your project. https://www.kent.ac.uk/courses/postgraduate/2707/biological-anthropology-msc
