Information for Offer Holders
Welcome message from the Head of School, Professor Aidan O'Sullivan
Welcome to all students taking Archaeology in 2025/26!
Archaeology is the "discipline of things", it explores how people make their own worlds through their relationships with 'stuff', whether that be objects, buildings, landscapes, and also people, animals, plants, places and time. We explore what it is to be human, how we make, use and discard things in our lives. Archaeology is the only discipline that can go back millennia and explore the diversity of the human condition across the world and how vastly different societies have been organised for thousands of years.
We're delighted to welcome you to UCD School of Archaeology. We are a friendly, approachable community and look forward to being with you on your journey into and through university, and even afterwards. Do come say hello any time you see us! Best of luck, see you soon!
