Career opportunities Career opportunities ====================== Wide-range of work opportunities -------------------------------- Graduates from the Master's programme in Palaeolithic Archaeology will work in research institutes, universities, heritage agencies, environmental agencies, planning offices, excavation companies, prospecting companies, but also, for example, in science journalism and other professional fields. Exceptional skills ------------------ Graduates have advantages in the archaeological job market because they have additional qualifications that are not taught in traditional archaeological courses. Often archaeologists have little or no experience in the Stone Age and Paleolithic. Since the Stone Age and Palaeolithic periods represent about 99% of human history, experienced archaeologists in these fields find many career opportunities in academic archaeology, research institutions, museums, and private archaeological firms. Research path ------------- Following the Master's degree, many graduates choose to pursue doctoral studies.
