Students should complete at least 12 hours of Anthropology before attempting an internship. All interns keep a record of their activities as well as attend required periodic class sessions. They meet individually with their faculty advisor to report on their progress. They are also evaluated by their placement supervisor. The grade is based on a combination of the placement supervisor's evaluation and the evaluation of the faculty advisor.
Credit is variable, ranging from one to six hours.

Return to Contents International Student Exchange Program Anthropology students are encouraged to take advantage of opportunities for study or work in other countries. During most summers, selected Anthropology students have the opportunity to participate in a local comprehensive archaeological field school which meets Society of Professional Archaeologists' standards. Students work for eight hours a day for eight weeks on Charleston Museum research sites in the South Carolina Low Country, receiving in-depth training in all phases of basic archaeological field research. Some students follow up their field experience with an internship in the Charleston Museum lab.
