Free courses

We run occasional free taster courses in Egyptology, which are open to anyone with an internet connection.

These courses are designed to introduce you to our teaching staff and enable you to experience e-learning before committing to one of our other courses.

Please note that our taster courses are run on various commercial platforms. You will register for your chosen course via the relevant platform and not via The University of Manchester.

This means that, though they are broadly similar in style and structure to our more formal courses, these taster courses are not identical to our formal courses. In particular, none of these taster courses has the level of tutor engagement that you will find on our other courses.
