MAA plays an active role in both research and the teaching of undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Cambridge, across many departments, but especially in support of the Department of Social Anthropology, and the Department of Archaeology.

We regularly host undergraduate practicals in archaeology, as well as from a number of other departments. Curators teach in undergraduate and MPhil courses in both Archaeology and Anthropology, and also supervise MPhil and PhD students.
