Another area which has recently developed at Flinders is Public and Community Archaeology . In addition, academic staff at Adelaide University specialise in Classical Archaeology and Physical Anthropology and those at the University of South Australia focus on Australian Indigenous Archaeology. Flinders is the only university in South Australia offering a major in Archaeology. Higher degree studies include MA and PhD research programs. The Archaeology program provides students with both practical experience and theoretical background.
Fieldwork is an essential component of the teaching program at all levels of study.
Periodic field trips provide first-hand experience in the study of archaeological sites and materials. Laboratory and practical sessions provide students with experience in archaeological data analysis and interpretation. This page was last modified on Wednesday, May 16, 2001.
