Overview

Archaeologists examine, recover, and preserve evidence and artifacts from past human cultures. They connect artifacts with information about historic environments to learn about the experiences, customs, and living habits of people in earlier civilizations.

Archaeologists often specialize in a particular geographic area, time period, or subject matter, such as animal remains or underwater sites. Many people with a Ph.D. in archaeology become professors or museum curators.

Career Outlook

Many archeologists work full time during regular business hours. When doing fieldwork, however, archeologists may be required to travel and to work many and irregular hours, including evenings and weekends.

Student Learning Outcomes
