Career outcomes after Archaeology
The broad-based skills acquired during your degree will give you an excellent grounding for a wide variety of careers, not only those related to archaeology but also in wider fields such as teaching, media and business. An Ofsted report on recurrent funding for 2021/22 describes Archaeology graduates as "crucial to the sustainability of the UK workforce in development-led archaeology". It highlights the national shortage of archaeologists due to the huge increase in major construction projects with field workers being recruited abroad to make up the deficit. They've highlighted Archaeology as a recognised construction skill and a "necessary part of the supply chain for the delivery of housing and infrastructure development, for instance HS2, Crossrail, and the A14 corridor project." It's also essential to meet planning policy requirements, particularly when it comes to delivering sustainable development.
