ARCH 495Senior Thesis (Spring semester, senior year), where they work directly
with a thesis advisor. Each student majoring in Archaeology completes a practical experience for credit, usually during the summer months. We recommend that students consider such possible experiences early, ideally completing one by the summer of their sophomore year, to gain valuable experiences that may shape their trajectory in the major. Students do not necessarily need to take courses for the major in a specific sequence, although course content and expectations build with the course level, and some courses have prerequisites. Students can tailor their course selections in discussions with a faculty member in the department. Here is a suggested flow through the Archaeology major:
