The University of Utah's summer program in archaeological and geoarchaeological field methods will be held at Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge and at a series of sites just west of Capitol Reef National Park. Sponsored by the Department of Anthropology and the Utah Museum of Natural History, this five week residential course is designed to teach basic archaeological field methods. No previous experience is necessary, but some exposure to basic archaeological and anthropological concepts is recommended. Admission to the field school is limited to 18 students.
Admission is by application only.
Priority for admission will be given to current University of Utah students and those pursuing a professional career in archaeology or a related discipline. Participants must provide their own health insurance, a small tool kit, basic personal camping equipment, and transportation to the University of Utah. Preference will be given to applications received prior to April 30, 2001.
