School of Archaeology and Anthropology · ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
The course provides training opportunities for students in Archaeological Science either as extended research training in laboratories, or as extended applied vocational placements. The minimum internship period is normally equivalent to 30-40 days of placement, but this may be completed flexibly or part-time. Course aims and outcomes are individually tailored to the student's training need and goals. This commonly provides the key training skills platform on which independent research projects or thesis topics can be subsequently developed. The course may be undertaken on campus, off campus in Australia, or overseas. In all cases the course is designed by the student in consultation with an academic adviser, and is subject to approval. Students will only be permitted to travel upon completion of ANU required documentation, including, where required, the travel to a high risk destination form and the approval of all documentation by the relevant delegate. Disclaimer: Applicants are advised that due to circumstances beyond the University's control (for example, specific international security concerns and international health crises) it may not be possible for students to commence or complete this course as advertised.
