Instructions
The official language of the La Biagiola International School of Archaeology is English, and no knowledge of Italian is required.
However, knowledge of Italian or French will be taken as an advantage.
Prerequisites
The School is open to undergraduate and graduate students in archaeology, classics, history, cultural resources management, museum studies, and related disciplines. Admission is limited to 20 participants per shift.
Although the archaeology field school is open to participants of all skill levels, we prefer that students complete at least one course in archaeological theory and excavation methods before applying. Students who meet this prerequisite will have priority.
However, we will consider applications from less experienced students and encourage anyone who is interested to apply. We will happily provide all necessary training.
Application
Before starting, you should gather information about your CV, education, relevant experience, interests, and health. You also need to know which session and shifts you want to join.
We use this information to create an optimal experience for you!
