As a part of the National Park system, the Midwest Archeological Center assists the parks and other federal agencies in locating, identifying, interpreting, and preserving their archeological resources. During the course of this work, the Center provides many opportunities for public participation in interesting archeological research through the VIP program.
Volunteers can be individuals or groups.
VIPs may have specialized skills of use to archeologists and support staff in areas of research, mapping, drafting, computer applications, and clerical work. Most VIPs, however, are trained on the job in a broad variety of areas. Whatever their skill level, all are welcome to apply. Come work side by side with our archeologists and support staff at the Center and in the field. The Midwest Archeological Center needs your help and the opportunities are as unlimited as the imagination.
