Nell from SwedenWhy do you think it is important to study archaeology? "I think it’s important to study archaeology because there is so much of our heritage that is still undiscovered. I believe that we humans, as a society and community, really need to know our history before moving forward. There’s so much we can learn from the past which could save us from making mistakes in the future!"What do

Xiaoxuan from ChinaWhat do you think of the programme so far? "I like it! It's a very interdisciplinary and international programme.

Ivette from SpainWhy did you choose this programme and why in Sweden?  "I knew I wanted to study in a Nordic country, but I was not really sure where because in Spain we don't really know that much about this area.
