Re: Archaeologist Entry Educational Requirements

Archaeology is a fascinating subject.
. However, most archaeologists get a college degree; some go further and study for a master's degree or a doctorate in their chosen area.

As the colleges and courses differ from country to country

No age is too young to start preparing.

Many regions have archaeology societies that offer regular lecture schedules, weekend schools, and even the opportunity to experience life on a dig.

Read as much about the subject as you can, search the Web for information and visit museums and exhibitions whenever you get the chance.

If there is no local archaeology society in your area, perhaps you could set one up at school, with the help of a friendly teacher

Chemistry, biology and physics will always prove useful

Mathematics will be helpful for statistical analysis

English is important

Diving skills are a must for those who wish to become underwater archaeologists.

Geography and geology are an advantage; practical skills such as pottery, textiles, or woodwork are useful for studying ancient technologies

Egyptology, for example, requires an ability to read publications in French and German.)

Anthropology is an excellent background subject
