Mae’r rhaglen un flwyddyn hon, a addysgir gan ymchwilwyr sy’n cael eu parchu’n rhyngwladol, wedi’i dylunio i ddiwallu anghenion cadwraethwyr a graddedigion gwyddoniaeth sy’n dymuno ehangu i faes cyffrous gwyddorau treftadaeth a chadwraeth. Gyda ffocws ar brosesau meddwl yn hytrach na gwybodaeth, ein nod yw creu datryswyr problemau a meddylwyr beirniadol sy’n gallu dylunio a gweithredu ymchwil gadarn sy’n gwella dealltwriaeth yn y sector.
Dros y flwyddyn astudio, cewch eich trwytho yn theori ac ymarfer maes cadwraeth a’r gwyddorau treftadaeth. Byddwch yn astudio modiwlau sy’n herio eich rhagdybiaethau am gadwraeth ac archwilio’r llenyddiaeth sy’n sail i’n proffesiwn ochr yn ochr â modiwlau sy’n canolbwyntio ar gaffael sgiliau wrth ymchwilio a dadansoddi arteffactau treftadaeth. Bydd hyn yn arwain at ymchwil traethawd hir annibynnol sy’n dangos eich dealltwriaeth o broses wyddonol a’ch gallu i greu setiau data newydd.
Wrth weithio ar eich astudiaethau yn ein cyfres o labordai pwrpasol, bydd gennych fynediad at gyfoeth o offer arbenigol. Mae adnoddau mewnol yn amrywio o ficrosgopeg sganio electronau, Fourier trawsnewid isgoch a sbectrosgopegau ramau i electrogemeg, sbectroffometreg a radiograffeg X. Mae ein gwaith ar y cyd ag Amgueddfa Cymru yn galluogi myfyrwyr i gael mynediad at ddiffreithiant pelydr X a thechnegau fflwroleuol pelydr X. Rydym hefyd yn cynnig technolegau delweddu arbenigol megis microsgopeg digidol, GIS, darlunio digidol ac ystafell ffotograffiaeth bwrpasol, yn ogystal ag offer paratoi sampl (sychwyr rhewi, sgriffiadau ag aer a ‘microbalances’). Mae gennym labordy efelychu hinsawdd pwrpasol ar gyfer modelu effaith amgylcheddau ar dreftadaeth a deunyddiau cadwraeth.
Mae ein myfyrwyr MSc yn ymuno ag amgylchedd ymchwil ac addysgu bywiog a chefnogol o israddedigion, ôl-raddedigion a chadwraethwyr doethurol a gwyddonwyr treftadaeth.
Wrth ddathlu canmlwyddiant Archaeoleg a Chadwraeth yn 2020, rydym ymhlith y 150 gorau yn y byd (Rhestr QS o Brifysgolion Gorau’r Byd yn ôl Pwnc 2020) gyda’n hymchwil yn y 12fed safle yn y DU (Fframwaith Rhagoriaeth Ymchwil 2014).
Ble byddwch yn astudio
Yr Ysgol Hanes, Archaeoleg a Chrefydd
Rydym yn chwilfrydig am brofiadau bodau dynol dros filoedd o flynyddoedd a diwylliannau, ac eisiau deall ein gorffennol yn well er mwyn goleuo ein presennol a gwella ein dyfodol.

Strwythur y cwrs
This is a full-time programme, taught over two semesters (one year).
You study core modules totalling 80 credits and choose optional modules worth 40 credits.
Following successful completion of the taught element of the programme you progress to your dissertation (20,000 words maximum) on a laboratory-based research topic. In some instances, this research may be included in a Cardiff based publication, with your name included on the author list.
Mae'r modiwlau a ddangosir yn esiampl o'r cwricwlwm arferol. Byddant yn cael eu hadolygu cyn blwyddyn academaidd 2022/23. Bydd y modiwlau terfynol yn cael eu cyhoeddi erbyn mis Medi 2022.

Mae'r Brifysgol wedi ymrwymo i ddarparu amrywiaeth eang o opsiynau modiwl lle’n bosibl. Ond byddwch yn ymwybodol er y byddwn yn gwneud pob ymdrech i gynnig dewis, gall hyn gael ei gyfyngu mewn rhai amgylchiadau. Y rheswm am hyn yw'r ffaith mai dim ond nifer cyfyngedig o leoedd sydd ar gael ar rai modiwlau, a gaiff eu dyrannu ar sail y cyntaf i'r felin. Mae'n ofynnol i fodiwlau eraill sicrhau isafswm nifer o fyfyrwyr cyn gallu eu cynnal, er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr y gellir cyflwyno addysg o ansawdd priodol. Gall modiwlau gael eu cyfyngu oherwydd gwrthdaro yn yr amserlen hefyd, ac er bod y Brifysgol yn ymdrechu i amharu cyn lleied â phosibl ar eich dewis, byddai'n syniad da i chi ofyn am gyngor gan yr Ysgol berthnasol am y dewisiadau modiwl sydd ar gael.
Dysgu ac asesu
Sut y caf fy addysgu?
We teach via lectures, seminars, group discussion, tutorials, laboratory classes, demonstrations and field trips.
