Archaeology classes combine detective work with hands-on discovery, teaching you to read landscapes and artifacts for clues about past human lives. Many courses include fieldwork opportunities where you'll learn excavation techniques, artifact analysis, and site documentation. The analytical skills and historical perspective gained apply far beyond archaeology, enhancing critical thinking and cultural understanding.

“Since I’ve come to college – even though I haven’t chosen archaeology as my major – ancient history has stayed with me as a particular interest. And when last semester, while I was picking my classes for this semester, I found that I couldn’t fit any more International Studies classes in my schedule, I decided to take an archaeology class: “Ancient Egypt and Her Neighbors.” [...] Today, anyhow, I went into the Museum to look at the object that I will have to write about for my next essay in this class, actually about the use of sympathetic magic. It was so amazing to get to look at a pair of sandals that were LITERALLY OVER 3,000 YEARS OLD. IN PERSON.”
