The course begins with an introduction to Egyptology, providing a clear outline of how the field has developed and why Ancient Egypt continues to be a subject of worldwide interest. It then progresses through a detailed timeline of the dynasties, offering a chronological structure that supports a better grasp of political and cultural changes over time.

The third module focuses on the religious beliefs of the Egyptians, introducing major gods and goddesses, their stories, symbolism, and their role in daily and royal life. This is followed by an exploration of Egyptian art, covering techniques, materials, and themes used across different periods. The course then moves to the architectural innovations of Ancient Egypt, such as temples, pyramids, and tombs, detailing their construction methods and functions.

Government structure and the roles of pharaohs, scribes, and other officials are covered in the sixth module, followed by a look into daily life—food, dress, social roles, and education—in module seven. Module eight introduces the Egyptian writing system, hieroglyphs, and their contribution to administration and culture. Finally, the course concludes with a study of trade networks and military organisation, showing how Ancient Egypt maintained its wealth and influence for centuries.

The course suits learners interested in history, archaeology, anthropology, or cultural heritage, and supports progression into further study or work in related fields.
