Happy International Archaeology Day! 🌍🔍

Forget the dusty stereotypes—modern archaeology is high-tech, field-tested, and rooted in environmental science.

Through the Department of Earth Sciences’ Archaeology Concentration, students analyze ancient soils, decode past adaptations to climate change, and master advanced lab instrumentation. From field surveys to elemental analysis, our students build the practical skills needed for in-demand careers in Cultural Resource Management (CRM), environmental consulting, and public agencies like the National Park Service and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Turn your curiosity about the past into real-world discovery.
